To add a little bit more context, this is something that has been brought up before on Discord and it looks like the focus is going to shift from Pagefind’s Default UI (that Starlight is currently using) to their Modular UI soon and the plan for Starlight may be to switch to the Modular UI at some point which may also be a better place/time to implement this feature. Nonetheless, this is definitely a good issue to track this feature, thanks for bringing it up! 👍 |

I’ll add here that this is might also be something best improved in Pagefind itself as I’m guessing its utility extends beyond Starlight and to other Pagefind users. |

What version of
starlightare you using?0.10.2
What is your idea?
I'm used to being able to use Up and Down arrow keys to navigate through search results, I'd like to see this added to Starlight's search.
Why is this feature necessary?
It would help with accessibilty for users that don't use the mouse and want to navigate quicker than the regular Tab order. It would also unify the search experience with Algolia's search, which is a popular option in Docusaurus-backed docs.
Do you have examples of this feature in other projects?
