Tips for Efficient Use

  • Learn the G shortcuts first — Navigation is the most common action
  • Pin your top 3 topics — Alt+1, Alt+2, Alt+3 become muscle memory
  • Use command palette for rare actions — Don't memorize everything
  • Space for toggle — On Timer page, Space is the fastest way to start/stop
  • Cmd+K for discovery — Search in command palette to find any feature
