Throw that mouse Away its time to setup some keyboard shortcuts.
These sortcuts were the baseline for switching from tmux/vim to vscode. Most folks posts I was able to find gave great tips on replacing vim, but very few have focused on the hackability of tmux. tmux allows me to rapidly fire up a workspace, create new windows and splits. Then When I switch tasks I can leave that workspace open and and jump right back in later exactly where I left off. There is nothing quite like it. The shortcuts listed here make the transition a bit better. The worst thing I found when using vscode at first was no way to switch between the terminal and editor without the mouse. This first set of keybindings solve that issue.
