Questions?
For the curious mind.
Do I need a mechanical keyboard?▼
Absolutely not. While mechanical keyboards are satisfying, the craft of keyboard mastery applies to any device. Your laptop keyboard is perfectly fine. It's about how you use it, not what you buy.
I still think I'm pretty fast with a mouse?▼
You might be! A mouse rewards hand-eye coordination; a keyboard rewards muscle memory. Familiar shortcuts can remove repeated pointer travel, but the better input method is the one that fits the task and the person.
Should I ditch the mouse entirely?▼
No, absolutely not. The mouse is a must for precision tasks like photo editing, 3D modeling, or certain games. The goal isn't to kill the mouse—it's to learn where a shortcut feels more direct.
How long until I'm fast?▼
There is no honest universal deadline. Short, regular practice helps many people build familiarity, but progress depends on your starting point, tools, and routine. Aim for comfort and accuracy before speed.
Is this for programmers only?▼
No way. Writers, researchers, students, and administrators can all benefit. If you spend your day reading and typing text, tools such as Vimium C may make common browser actions feel more direct.
Can I use these on my work computer?▼
Often, yes! Vimium C is just a browser extension. Espanso and GlazeWM often have portable versions that don't require admin installation. However, always check your company's IT policy first.
I feel slower than before!▼
That is the 'Dip'. Switching from a familiar input method to a new one often slows you down at first. Practice in low-stakes moments, keep the mouse available, and keep only the shortcuts that earn their place.
What if I forget the shortcuts?▼
Cheat sheets are your friend. Print them out. Or better yet, use tools like Cheatsheet (Mac) or just press ? in Vimium/Gmail/GitHub to see available shortcuts instantly.
