## Description

Key Jump Keyboard Navigation is a seamless Hit-a-Hint style extension allowing users to navigate web pages entirely via keyboard shortcuts. By pressing the comma key, users activate hints on all clickable and focusable elements like links, buttons, and text fields, enabling quick selection without reaching for the mouse.

Additionally, pressing the period key opens links in new tabs, streamlining multitasking. These shortcut keys and automatic hint triggers are fully customizable within the extension's options. Escape hides hints instantly, ensuring smooth user control. Designed for efficiency and accessibility, Key Jump enhances browsing speed and convenience while supporting feedback and improvements through its GitHub repository.
