Overview
In KeyboardKit, a KeyboardAction enum defines keyboard-specific actions, that can be triggered by the keyboard or programmatically, and handled with a KeyboardActionHandler.
Keyboard Action Namespace
KeyboardKit has a KeyboardAction enum that defines all supported keyboard actions. It’s also a namespace for action-related types and views, like a standard action handler.
Keyboard Actions
The KeyboardAction enum defines many keyboard-related actions, like .character(_:), .backspace, .nextLocale, .dismissKeyboard, etc.
Keyboard Action Handler
Actions can be triggered by button taps, system events, or triggered programmatically, and handled with a KeyboardActionHandler.
The KeyboardView component automatically applies action handling to all its buttons, to make them support keyboard gestures, show input and action callouts, etc.
