More Keyboard Shortcuts

I like Yaak’s existing keyboard shortcuts and have seen similar requests, but see opportunities for keyboard-centric users:

Renaming

  • Inline renaming mode (the one you can get into by double-clicking on the request name) for newly created requests (like the New Folder modal, not default “HTTP Request,” “gRPC Request,” or “WebSocket Request”)

  • F2 or Enter for request renaming

  • F2 or Enter for inline folder renaming (similar to how you could rename requests by double-clicking on the name)

  • A shortcut similar to App/Workspace Settings for opening Folder Settings for renaming

  • Return or Cmd+Return for confirming renaming and closing Folder Settings

  • ESC for canceling folder renaming (currently, ESC behavior is inconsistent—cancels request renaming, but confirms folder renaming)

Navigation

  • Shortcuts (e.g., Cmd-1, Cmd-2, etc.) to switch between request tabs (Body/Message, Params, Headers, Auth, Metadata, Info)

  • Shortcuts to switch between git branches (or, show git branches in the Command Palette)

Editing

  • Shortcut to switch between form edit mode and bulk edit mode

  • Shortcuts for enabling/disabling form rows

  • Shortcuts for deleting rows (nice to have, can be done in bulk edit mode)

  • Shortcuts for moving rows up/down (nice to have, can be done in bulk edit mode)
