Dev Tools Shortcut Command Deck: 40 VS Code, Git & Terminal Shortcuts to Replace Your Mouse

Welcome back to the Shortcut Hub, my friend! This week the wizard handed you the Browser Power-Shortcut Command Deck — today it is the developers' turn. Meet the Dev Tools Shortcut Command Deck: 40 of the most powerful VS Code, Git, and terminal shortcuts, packed into one searchable deck you can practice anywhere.

Your mouse is even slower in the editor than it is in the browser. Jumping between files, staging commits, hunting command history — every one of those trips can happen in a blink with the right keys. Open the deck on your desktop or your phone, deal yourself a few cards a day, and watch your workflow turn into pure spellcasting.

How to Use It

• Search or filter — type any action (“commit”, “line”, “clear”) or pick a category: VS Code, Git, or Terminal.
• Tap the copy button — any shortcut card copies the key combo straight to your clipboard.
• Pin favorites — star the ones you use daily; they persist between visits on this device.
• Practice Quiz — ten random questions, score plus streak bonus, and a Play Again button when you want the rematch.

Wizard's pro tips: Learn five shortcuts a week, not forty at once. Start with Ctrl+P (quick-open) and Ctrl+` (toggle terminal) — they pay rent on day one. On a Mac, swap Ctrl for Cmd in most VS Code combos; Git and terminal combos are identical on every OS. On mobile, everything works by tap.

Your move, keyboard wizard — the terminal era ends never, but the mouse era ends today.
