#FAQ
What is the difference between keyCode, key, and code? ▾
keyCode is a deprecated numeric value for the key. key returns the character value (e.g., "a", "Enter"). code returns the physical key identifier (e.g., "KeyA", "Enter") regardless of keyboard layout. Use key or code instead of keyCode in modern code.
Why is keyCode deprecated? ▾
keyCode is deprecated because its values are inconsistent across browsers and keyboard layouts. The key and code properties provide more reliable and descriptive values for handling keyboard events.
