Hotkey to focus on code window

[PrasoonVaish]

Hello everyone,

When a new challenge is launched, the focus is not on the code window.

User has to manually click into the code window to be able to write.

Is it possible to have a keyboard shortcut to focus on the code window, just like we have a keyboard shotcut (Ctrl + Enter) to submit our solution and to launch the next challenge?

It feels annoying sometimes to use mouse just to get focus when all the actions are happening via keyboard.

Thanks in advance.
Prasoon

I think that idea is great to me!

How about Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + E ?

While I'm theory this can be done, there's an on-going issue with the code mirror cursor bugging out. The editor does auto focus on page loads but there's a bug that prevents round. There are a few issues open around this that would still be open.
