Is it possible to have the date picker be more keyboard-accessible?

  1. It looks like the renderDay method would need to have a <button /> with a tabIndex property inside of each <td> cell.
  2. aria-labels would need to be added
  3. (Looks more work-intensive) keyboard event listeners to listen for the left and right arrows might be added (to advance the months and not just the days)

Hi @nicolechung. Thanks for your suggestion. We currently do not have this on our roadmap and personally I don't see it as a high-prio. You seem to have a pretty good understanding of what it would require to implement so I'd be glad to review a PR from you adding this functionality.

This is something that we should improve ASAP. Looks like a nice first contribution for anybody.
