Keyboard Shortcuts

Oh hi there 👋 dont miss out by subscribing.

This is a list of many Keyboard Shortcuts I encountered / Use now in my work with Computers. I will try to keep this list up to date. If you have any suggestions, please let me know by opening an issue on Github.

The .json file for all the Keyboard Shortcuts is here.

I also defined a json schema for the file, which you can find here. It’s a lot of fun and it really streamlines the process of adding new shortcuts, because they have to adhere to the schema. It really pays of to learn about json schema.

Applications / Places

General

These Shortcuts work in most programs, but still watch out for program specific shortcuts.
