Know Your Shortcuts is an interactive 3D keyboard visualization that lets you explore and learn keyboard shortcuts for common design and productivity apps. Rather than hunting through documentation or memorizing flat cheat sheets, you interact with a rendered keyboard that lights up and reveals shortcuts contextually — making the learning process more spatial and tactile. The core value proposition is turning a notoriously dry skill-building task into something closer to hands-on exploration.

Why it stands out

The 3D keyboard metaphor is genuinely clever — it mirrors the physical object you're actually trying to build muscle memory with, which flat reference sheets never do. For visual learners, seeing shortcuts mapped spatially onto a keyboard layout accelerates pattern recognition in a way a table of text simply can't.

Best for

Designers who are mid-level in tools like Figma or Sketch and know they're leaving speed on the table but lack the discipline to grind through documentation.
