Keymap for all IntelliJ-based IDEs where most shortcuts have two keystrokes: the first one defines a group and the second one defines an action in this group.

Mnemonic Keymap

A keymap for all IntelliJ-based IDEs where most shortcuts have two keystrokes: the first one defines a group and the second one defines an action in this group (e.g. Ctrl/Cmd+D, A for Debug > Attach to Process or Ctrl/Cmd+N, U for Navigate > Find Usages).

You may want to try out this keymap if some of the following features are important to you:

  • Easy-to-remember mnemonic mappings
  • Same shortcuts across different operating systems
  • Fewer modifier keys
  • No conflicts with system shortcuts
  • No conflicts on non-English Latin keyboards

Specific key bindings are listed below by category.

Single-chord shortcuts:

  • Standard editor shortcuts
  • Standard macOS application shortcuts
  • Shortcuts for sequential actions

Double-chord shortcuts:

  • Ctrl/Cmd+B (block) - manipulate code blocks
  • Ctrl/Cmd+D (debug) - running and debugging
  • Ctrl/Cmd+E (editor) - editor actions
  • Ctrl/Cmd+G (gather) - code folding actions
  • Ctrl/Cmd+I (inspect) - code analysis actions
  • Ctrl/Cmd+J (jump) - single-destination navigation
  • Ctrl/Cmd+K (kommit) - VCS actions
  • Ctrl/Cmd+L (line) - manipulate code lines
  • Ctrl/Cmd+N (navigate) - multiple-destination navigation
  • Ctrl/Cmd+P (project) - global project actions
  • Ctrl/Cmd+O (other) - IDE-specific and plugin-specific actions
  • Ctrl/Cmd+R (refactor) - bulk transformations
  • Ctrl/Cmd+T (test) - testing actions
  • Ctrl/Cmd+U (utilities) - global helper actions
  • Ctrl/Cmd+W (window) - manipulate tool windows
