Keyboard Shortcuts

Here are some keyboard shortcuts you’ll love when editing your notes.

This works best if you can see the result in the preview panel, run the Markdown: Open Preview to the Side command.

You can use either the name or the id to find each shortcut in the settings (File > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts) and find out what it is bound to on your system and change it according to your liking.
