Shortcut Component for Framer

This is a handy component for Framer that lets you create custom keyboard shortcuts for navigating your website. Just add it to your page, type in the key combinations and links you want in the properties panel, and let your visitors jump around your site using their keyboard – no coding needed!

About the resource

Getting started is simple: just copy and paste the Shortcuts component onto your Framer canvas. Since you'll often want shortcuts (especially for navigation) to work across your entire site, the best place to put this component is usually inside your main site navigation component. Doing this means it will automatically be included on every page that uses that navigation. Crucially, remember that the keyboard shortcuts you define will only work on pages where this Shortcut component is actually present.

Don't worry about the component cluttering your design – it's a completely invisible 0x0 component. You can also set it to absolute position so it doesn’t push other content away on the page.

To avoid frustration, the shortcuts are automatically disabled if a visitor is currently clicking and typing inside a text box, search bar, or any similar input area. This prevents them from accidentally navigating away when they just mean to type!
