Learn about Flutter desktop
summary
Explains concrete fixes for desktop Flutter behavior: Tab traversal follows screen geometry by default so wrap navigation in FocusTraversalGroup() or set OrderedTraversalPolicy with FocusTraversalOrder to force desired order, map global keys like Space or M using CallbackShortcuts() or a top‑level Shortcuts/Actions/Intent pair so actions resolve based on which widget has focus, remember text fields consume typing, and use FocusableActionDetector to combine focus, shortcuts, hover, and actions for custom controls.
