Here is my current keybindings.json, which I reference throughout. Then, I will dive into some keybindings that I use everyday. This is not intended to be a guide on keybindings in VS Code, there is a good guide for that already, however I will cover a few key points (pardon the pun) on adding and modifying keybindings that will ensure we are on the page. Well, most extensions do not have default keybindings! Since some of your most commonly used functionality probably lives in some extension or another, you would need to add your own keybindings to reap the rewards there! And there may be builtin commands that you want a shortcut for, but it has none or maybe there is one that is not to your liking! You will need to get your hands dirty at some stage! You just need to learn some of these and put them to use (see keybindings references for Linux (US), Windows (US), macOS (US)). Visual Studio Code (VS Code) comes with default keybindings for many of its built-in commands. Keyboard Shortcuts (keybindings) can help you achieve tasks faster, and with less effort.
