- Everyone loves keyboard shortcuts. Programmers are known to love using their keyboards to whiz around without touching the mouse, and even other people often prefer the ease of using the keyboard and not having to change input methods all the time. It's also a type of [accessibility feature](https://medium.com/@superplane39/i-spent-three-months-as-a-keyboard-only-user-heres-what-i-learned-d5d19ccbef35) (disclaimer: I wrote that).
- In that vein, I'd *love* to see keyboard shortcuts arrive here on Codidact in some form. I've lined out a few commands that I'd think would be useful and are in line with my experience using keyboard shortcuts elsewhere on the 'net (Twitter, Stack, etc.).
