Why Use JustKeycode?

Handling keyboard events in JavaScript can be confusing due to legacy API properties. `event.keyCode` is technically deprecated but still widely used in older codebases. Modern best practices dictate using `event.key` (the actual character generated) or `event.code` (the physical key on the keyboard, regardless of language layout). JustKeycode gives you all three in real-time.
