React RadioGroup - Keyboard Support
An end user can use the following keys to interact with the UI component.
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
| ↑ or Page Up | Moves focus to the previous radio button. |
| ↓ or Page Down | Moves focus to the next radio button. |
| Home / End | Moves focus to the first/last radio button. |
| Enter or Space | Selects the focused radio button. |
You can implement a custom handler for a key using the registerKeyHandler(key, handler) method.

JavaScript
function registerKeyHandlers () {
