How to scroll flutter web app using arrow keys

The code from Karan works, but when the app is in Debug Mode, instead of using the event.logicalKey.debugName == "Arrow Up", we could use event.logicalKey == LogicalKeyboardKey.arrowUp which works in both the debug and release mode.

class _MyKeyboardScrollingPageState extends State<MyKeyboardScrollingPage> {

    final ScrollController _controller = ScrollController();
    final FocusNode _focusNode = FocusNode();

    void _handleKeyEvent(RawKeyEvent event) {
        var offset = _controller.offset;
        if (event.logicalKey == LogicalKeyboardKey.arrowUp) {
            setState(() {
                if (kReleaseMode) {
                    _controller.animateTo(offset - 200, duration: Duration(milliseconds: 30), curve: Curves.ease);
                } else {
                    _controller.animateTo(offset - 200, duration: Duration(milliseconds: 30), curve: Curves.ease);
                }
            });
        }
        else if (event.logicalKey == LogicalKeyboardKey.arrowDown) {
            setState(() {
                if (kReleaseMode) {
                    _controller.animateTo(offset + 200, duration: Duration(milliseconds: 30), curve: Curves.ease);
                } else {
                    _controller.animateTo(offset + 200, duration: Duration(milliseconds: 30), curve: Curves.ease);
                }
            });
        }
    }


    @override
    void dispose() {
        _focusNode.dispose();
        super.dispose();
    }


    @override
    Widget build(BuildContext context) {
        return Scaffold(
            body: RawKeyboardListener(
                autoFocus = true,
                focusNode = _focusNode,
                onKey: _handleKeyEvent,
                child: SingleChildScrollView(
                    controller: _controller,
                    child: SomeAwesomeWidget(),
                ),
            ),
        );
    }
}

I found one solution ...

Hope this helps someone with the same issue...

Using RawKeyboardListener(), we can listen to any keyboard stroke.

class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {
  final ScrollController _controller = ScrollController();
  final FocusNode _focusNode = FocusNode()
  
  @override
  void dispose() {
    _focusNode.dispose();
    super.dispose();
  }

  void _handleKeyEvent(RawKeyEvent event) {
    var offset = _controller.offset;    //Getting current position
    if (event.logicalKey.debugName == "Arrow Down")  {
      setState(() {
        if (kReleaseMode) {
          //This block only runs when the application was compiled in release mode.
          _controller.animateTo(offset + 50,
              duration: Duration(milliseconds: 200), curve: Curves.ease);
        } else {
          // This will only print useful information in debug mode.
          // print(_controller.position); to get information..
          _controller.animateTo(offset + 50,
              duration: Duration(milliseconds: 200), curve: Curves.ease);
        }
      });
    } else if (event.logicalKey.debugName == "Arrow Up"){
      setState(() {
        if (kReleaseMode) {
          _controller.animateTo(offset - 50,
              duration: Duration(milliseconds: 200), curve: Curves.ease);
        } else {
          _controller.animateTo(offset - 50,
              duration: Duration(milliseconds: 200), curve: Curves.ease);
        }
      });

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: RawKeyboardListener(
        autofocus: true,
        focusNode: _focusNode,
        onKey: _handleKeyEvent,
        child: SingleChildScrollView(
          controller: _controller,
          child:...

    }
  }

  

You can wrap ScrollBar to SingleChildScrollView to show scroll bar, like this:

Scrollbar(
      child: SingleChildScrollView(
            child: Container(),
));

For the answers that are mentioned above to work, you need the following imports:

import 'package:flutter/services.dart';
import 'package:flutter/foundation.dart';
