Customizing Shortcuts

You can customize any of these shortcuts through the Keyboard Shortcuts editor:

1. Press Ctrl+K Ctrl+S (or Cmd+K Cmd+S on macOS)
2. Search for the command you want to change
3. Click the pencil icon next to the current shortcut
4. Press your desired key combination
5. Press Enter to save the new shortcut

If you prefer to edit the shortcuts directly, you can modify the keybindings.json file:

1. Open Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P / Cmd+Shift+P)
2. Type "Open Keyboard Shortcuts (JSON)" and select it
3. Add your custom key bindings in the JSON format

Example custom keybinding:

[
  {
    "key": "ctrl+shift+j",
    "command": "workbench.action.terminal.toggleTerminal"
  }
]
