Developers can now manually run workflows set with workflow_dispatch directly from the Workflow view (Repository -> Actions -> Workflows) on GitHub Mobile. This addition provides developers with greater flexibility and control over their workflows, enabling them to trigger workflows manually while on the go using GitHub Mobile. Whether they are away from their desks, traveling, or simply need to run a workflow quickly, this feature ensures developers can manage their projects efficiently from anywhere.

Keyboard Navigation Improvements for Hovercards

Keyboard Navigation Improvements for Hovercards

We are excited to announce new keyboard behavior for navigating and dismissing hovercards without the need for a mouse! This enhancement is designed to make our platform more user-friendly for everyone, particularly those who rely on keyboard navigation.

How It Works

When you focus on a link with a hovercard, you can now press Alt + Up to make the hovercard appear and move focus inside it. This ensures that you can interact with the hovercard content without leaving your keyboard. Focus is trapped within the hovercard, similar to how it would be in a dialog box. To dismiss the hovercard and restore focus to the link, press Esc.

Customizable Settings

In response to both community and internal feedback, we have also introduced a new user setting that allows you to disable all hovercards. This option can be found under Accessibility Settings.
