Ask HN: What keymap do you use in code editors/IDEs?
2 by bartekpacia | 1 comments on Hacker News.
Hey HN, I'm curious what keymap do you use when you work with code in code editors/IDEs. I see 3 types of answers to this questions: a) the program's default keymap, e.g. VSCode, IntelliJ b) the program's default keymap but heavily customized c) your own keymap? I'm between b) and c) right now and I think I regret it and should've just sticked with the defaults. I heavily configured the VSCode keymap a few years ago (using this tutorial [1]) and it's been serving me well, but recently I realized it's bad in a sense it makes it hard to easily switch between editors (which I started doing recently). For example I started trying out Zed and Cursor the past few weeks but found out that I'll have to spend a considerable amount of time on making the keyboard shortcuts work the same way they do in VSCode. Had I stick to the default VSCode keymap, I'd just select "use VSCode keymap" and be done with it. For this reason, I'm considering switching to the default VSCode keymap, and using it in all editors I use (IntelliJ, Zed, Cursor, all the others). [1]: https://ift.tt/kH3pBn5
