How it works

You type the real keys, a few minutes a day, until your hands know them.

Step 1⌘K

Learn

See a command, type its shortcut. Miss one and it comes back. Spaced repetition decides when to review, so you don’t have to keep track.

Step 2⌃R

Practice

Drill at your own pace, with or without hints, or race the pace line in a speed run until each shortcut is automatic.

Step 3⇧Tab

Test

Pass a lesson’s test with 70% or more to open the next one. Your fluency level rises as shortcuts stick.
