Keybindings

For user who would like to use my vscode settings, please follow the steps in this link to set up the keybindings.

The philosophy of my keybindings is to use the same intuition of keybindings as vim.

Read first

  • To open a file/dir in terminal, use code command and file/dir following it
  • The vim extension is enabled by default, and jj is used instead of Esc since normal mode is the most used mode in vim
  • User could use j/k to move up/down in the file explorer instead of arrow keys
  • Enter to open the file in the current window and r to rename the file
  • Enter to toggle the folder when foucs on a folder
  • Ctrl + Enter to open the file in a splited window
  • E/R is modified to goto next/previous tab like surfingkeys in normal mode
  • leader key is set to Space
  • <Leader> cn/cp to go to next/previous error suggested by the linter
Ctrl keybindings tutorial
  • Ctrl + h/l to switch between splited windows/compared files, h for left, l for right
  • Ctrl + f to jump to the definition of the function, really useful for python

Cmd keybindings tutorial

  • Cmd + P to open a file of the current project
  • Cmd + Shift + P to open the vscode command palette
  • Cmd + J to toggle the terminal window
  • Cmd + J to the next sidebar view (when foucs on sidebar / quickopen)
  • Cmd + K to the previous sidebar view (when foucs on sidebar / quickopen)
  • Cmd + H/L to switch focus between text editor and file explorer sidebar
  • Cmd + H to the previous panel view (when foucs on panel)
  • Cmd + L to the next panel view (when foucs on panel)
  • Cmd + E to toggle the file explorer
  • Cmd + Shift + F to search text in the current project, and after pressing Enter, you could use j/k to move up/down in the search result. Pres Enter again to open the file in the current window.
Ctrl+a hotkey tutorial
  • Ctrl+a cmd+v to toggle Vim extension
  • Ctrl+a t to focus on the terminal
  • Ctrl+a c to compare the current file with the selected file
  • Ctrl+a p to display markdown/latex preview in other groups
  • Ctrl+a x to close text editor in other groups, useful when you splited windows and close it. Could combine with Ctrl+a p to close the splited preview window
