Show lessOn Windows, some characters without a dedicated key can be entered using the Alt + Numpad or Alt Code input method.
This is done by pressing and holding the ⌥ Alt key while typing a number that identifies the character, using the keyboard's numeric keypad, then releasing ⌥ Alt.
While this method only works on Windows, a similar method is available in most Unix or Unix-like OSs by holding down ⌃ Ctrl + ⇧ Shift + U, releasing them, then typing the hex number of an Unicode character and finally pressing the Spacebar or ↵ Enter key.
When using virtual/mobile keyboards, formally known as IME (Input-Method Editor), the W3C standard states that a KeyboardEvent's e.keyCode should be 229 and e.key should be "Unidentified".
However, Key.js will soon infer those values from other events so that you can use the App even on your phone!
