A Public Collection

It is a core idea of to not just practice any keyboard shortcuts, but to select what is useful for you.

Use this and other public collections to quickly build your own shortcut collections. The -icon shows at first glance which shortcuts are already in your collections. Hover over the icon to see the names of your collections that contain the respective shortcut.

Please note that we are not in any way affiliated to the applications, companies, and trademarks listed as public collections. The data is gathered solely from official and public sources. If you are the copyright holder and wish to see your software removed, please get in touch and we will remove it quickly.

Features on this page

The combination table supports all popular multi-selection patterns. Hold Shift for range-selection. Use Ctrl for selecting multiple areas, and drag the mouse to select adjacent entries.

Copy the selected combinations to a personal collection via the Collect-button on top of the table.

Use the sidebar on the right to quickly filter through your collection by preset criteria. Use the different search fields for more complex queries.

Use the buttons at the top-left of the combination table to export the keyboard combinations in different formats. (Pro only)
