Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Let's suppose you use a keyboard to navigate through Eleventy docs main page. In order to focus some element within main content (such as link) you have to tab through whole navigation on the left. It takes a while, because there are 57 links in the sidebar!
Describe the solution you'd like
Skip link. If you use tab key on the site, you'll be asked to:
- skip to main content
- skip to sidebar navigation
Skip link will show up only if tab key used.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I have not considered any alternatives ;)

No file or test is identified in the issue. Start by tracing the docs page's 57-link sidebar and main content with keyboard navigation; done means keyboard users can reveal links to skip to main content or sidebar navigation, and the links appear when tabbing as described.
