Description

Contains the platform-native physical key identifier

The exact values vary from platform to platform (which is part of why this is a per-platform enum), but the values are primarily tied to the key's physical location on the keyboard.

This enum is primarily used to store raw keycodes when Winit doesn't map a given native physical key identifier to a meaningful [KeyCode] variant. In the presence of identifiers we haven't mapped for you yet, this lets you use [KeyCode] to:

• Correctly match key press and release events.
• On non-web platforms, support assigning keybinds to virtually any key through a UI.
