Some keyboard shortcuts for VS Code
Ctrl+ö (show terminal window) (this is for swedish keyboard…)
Ctrl+P – Quick open – Quickly sort through and find all physical files in your project and open them.
F1 – Command search
Custom keyboard bindings i prefer:
{
“key”: “shift+alt+l”,
“command”: “workbench.files.action.showActiveFileInExplorer”
}
List of members for current file (I use this for Typescript files):
workbench.action.gotoSymbol command. On Windows and Linux it’s set to CTRL+Shift+O by default. I like ALT+[+] for this.
Since I am used to Visual Studio I installed this extension to map a lot of keyboard shortcuts in the same way: Visual Studio Keymap
If you are used to Resharper in Visual Studio here is an excellent post about it:

More bindings for those coming from other environments:
