Why this directory exists
Programming tools are especially good shortcuts pages because the work is already keyboard heavy. From editors and AI-first IDEs to terminal apps and modal text editors, the cost of translating between Mac and Windows shortcuts shows up constantly in search, navigation, split views, terminal control, and code action workflows.
How to read the pages
- Each app page shows the MacKeys shortcut beside the native Windows version.
- Gain labels are estimated from repetition, ergonomic reach, and translation cost.
- Workflow sections keep the page browsable instead of turning into one long table.

FAQ
Why does programming deserve its own category? +
Because developers spend all day in keyboard-driven tools, so even tiny modifier mismatches create repeated friction.
Are these pages meant to cover every shortcut in each tool? +
No. They are practical directory pages focused on the shortcuts that matter most for fast, repeatable work.
