accessibility: mui react table missing semantic

Author: fcnjdCreated Jan 13, 2026Updated May 30, 2026

What you were expecting: As a blind user relying on screenreader and Braille display, I expect clickable elements to be shown as either links or buttons.

What happened instead: Clickable table rows in MUI react tables are shown as normal text, although they do execute an action when enter is pressed on them.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Go to the helpdesk demo on (https://marmelab.com/react-admin-helpdesk/#/tickets)
  2. Turn on a screenreader, tested with NVDA on Windows
  3. Navigate the tickets table
  4. Find that entries are neither links nor buttons, but execute when pressed
