Keybinds overview

Here's an overview of the most commonly used mappings. It is not a complete list, you can find more by pressing <leader>sk to search through them, or <leader> to show whichkey (keybinds popup)

Also see: vim mappings

TIP: <leader> is space by default, read :help keycodes for more key names

TIP: <M> is alt on Windows/Linux and option on macOS

TIP: For macOS users: For the option key (⌥) to work as <M> you may need to adjust some settings:

• For iTerm2: Select Esc+ as the Option key setting in Preferences - Profiles - Keys
• For Alacritty: Make sure you're on Alacritty version >= 0.12.0. In your alacritty.yml config file, set window.option_as_alt to Both or OnlyLeft \ OnlyRight per your preference (https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty/issues/62).

TIP: Non-leader keybindings (for e.g. <C-\>, mentioned below and others) can be viewed by pressing <backspace> in the which-key main menu (first popup after pressing <leader>)
