+
+## What Carbon provides
+
+Carbon bakes keyboard operation into its components, improving the experience of
+blind users and others who operate via the keyboard. Carbon incorporates many
+other accessibility considerations, some of which are described below.
+
+### Keyboard interactions
+
+Popovers use an icon button for the trigger. These buttons are in the tab order
+and are activated by pressing `Enter` or `Space`. The activation toggles the
+popover open and closed, and focus remains on the trigger.
+
+When the popover contains interactive elements, pressing `Tab` will move focus
+to the first component in the popover. When the popover only has non-interactive
+text, or when the focus is on the last component in the popover, pressing `Tab`
+will close the popover and move focus to the next tab stop on the page.
+
+

+
+## Development considerations
+
+Keep these considerations in mind if you are modifying Carbon or creating a
+custom component.
+
+- The icon button has an `aria-label` that defines or describes what the icon
+ is.
+- The button uses `aria-expanded` to set popover visibility and `aria-controls`
+ to handle navigation to the content.
