What is a best practice for ensuring all nested items in a Blk Dot Menu are accessible via keyboard?

Use mouse-only navigation

Disable keyboard navigation

Ensure nested items are reachable by keyboard

Ensuring all nested items can be reached by keyboard means each submenu item is focusable and operable without a mouse. This matters because many users rely on keyboard navigation or assistive tech, so the menu must behave predictably in a keyboard-first flow. The best practice is to make nested items become focusable when their parent is opened, keep a logical focus order, and follow standard keyboard patterns: use arrow keys to move between items, Enter or Space to activate, Escape to close submenus, and Tab to move between top-level items. Use ARIA and focus management so the parent reflects its open state (aria-expanded) and the submenu is exposed to focus only when visible, with appropriate roles (for example, menu, menuitem) and tabindex management (items should be focusable when shown and skipped when hidden). This approach makes nested navigation accessible to everyone. The other options would rely on mouse-only interaction, disable keyboard access, or hide items from assistive tech, all of which undermine accessibility.
