interface of the Keyboard API is a read-only object with functions for retrieving the string associated with specific physical keys.
A KeyboardLayoutMap
instance is a read-only Map
-like object, in which each key is a string identifying the unique physical key on the keyboard (a "key code"), and the corresponding value is the associated key attribute value (which may be affected by the keyboard layout, and so on).
A list of valid keys is found in the UI Events KeyboardEvent code Values specification.
