The complete NitroIDE keyboard reference — app commands, the command palette, and the Monaco editor essentials. On macOS, use Cmd wherever you see Ctrl.
NitroIDE App Shortcuts
Built into the workspace itself — these work anywhere in the editor.
| Ctrl + K | Open the command palette (every IDE action, fuzzy-searchable) |
| Ctrl + S | Save buffers and force a hard re-compile of the preview |
| Esc | Close the command palette or any open menu |
| ↑ ↓ then Enter | Navigate the command palette and run the highlighted command |
Monaco Editor Essentials
NitroIDE runs the same editor engine as VS Code, so these defaults come free.
| F1 | Editor command palette |
| Ctrl + F | Find in current file |
| Ctrl + H | Find and replace |
| Ctrl + G | Go to line / column |
| Ctrl + / | Toggle line comment |
| Alt + ↑ / ↓ | Move current line up / down |
| Shift + Alt + ↑ / ↓ | Copy current line up / down |
| Ctrl + D | Select next occurrence of current selection |
| Ctrl + Shift + K | Delete current line |
| Ctrl + Space | Trigger suggestion / autocomplete |
| Tab / Shift + Tab | Indent / outdent selection (Tab also expands Emmet) |
| Ctrl + Z / Ctrl + Shift + Z | Undo / redo |
Console CLI Commands
Prefer typing? The developer console doubles as a command line.
| install name | Inject a CDN library, e.g. install tailwind |
| export zip | Download the whole project as a ZIP |
| format | Format the current code |
| theme dark|light|toggle | Switch the workspace theme |
| clear | Clear the console history |
Missing a shortcut you rely on? Open an issue and tell us — the palette-first design means most actions are one Ctrl+K away anyway.
