Keyboard shortcuts as app interaction triggers

For app users, it would be amazing if keyboard shortcuts could act as another triggers for app interaction workflows which can now only be triggered via GUI buttons.

Examples:

  • Arrows to move between records, screens, or tabs (via go to detail screen)

  • Open or close modals / detail views without clicking.

  • Shift + S (or similar) to trigger a custom action, even via programmable mice

This would make Glide apps faster, more accessible, and feel closer to professional desktop software.

All it takes: in the interaction workflow editor, allow adding a keyboard shortcut trigger alongside the existing app interaction.

Would love to hear if others would use this!
