 To demonstrate, let's design a simple interactive counter widget which can be incremented and decremented using the keyboard.
 
 In the following example, we define a simple `Counter` widget with `can_focus=True`, and some CSS to make it stand out when focused.
+Our app contains three `Counter` widgets, which we can move focus between using ++tab++ and ++shift+tab++.

 ## Rich renderables
 
 In previous examples we've set strings as content for Widgets. You can also use special objects called [renderables](https://rich.readthedocs.io/en/latest/protocol.html) for advanced visuals. You can use any renderable defined in [Rich](https://github.com/Textualize/rich) or third party libraries.
