Customizing Shortcuts
Keymap Presets
Open Settings > Keyboard Shortcuts to view and modify all key bindings. Substrate uses a JSON-based keybinding configuration. Changes take effect immediately without restarting.
Substrate ships with a default keymap. Community keymaps for VS Code and JetBrains-style bindings are available as plugins.
Substrate supports Vim keybindings. Enable modal editing in Settings > Editor > Modal. When Vim mode is active, the editor starts in Normal mode and standard Vim motions, operators, and ex commands are available.
