“Master Sublime Text in Minutes: Top Shortcuts to Boost Your Workflow”
Sublime Text is known for its simplicity and speed, but with shortcuts, it becomes even faster.
Use Cmd + P
(or Ctrl + P
on Windows) to search files by name, instantly taking you to any file in your project.
Finding text within files is easy with Cmd + Shift
+ F (or Ctrl + Shift
+ F), which conducts a project-wide search, helping locate definitions or variables quickly.
Multi-cursor editing is a standout in Sublime; simply press Cmd + D
(or Ctrl + D
) to select the next occurrence of a word for batch editing—a huge time-saver for large codebases.
For block commenting, Cmd + / (or Ctrl
+ /) comments selected lines, and Cmd + Shift
+ D (or Ctrl + Shift
+ D) duplicates lines, perfect for repeating patterns.
Navigating between tabs is also quick with Cmd + Option
+ Arrow (or Ctrl + Tab
), letting you cycle through open files without lifting your hand from the keyboard.
Closing a tab accidentally? No problem—Cmd + Shift
+ T (or Ctrl + Shift
+ T) reopens the last closed tab, so you don’t lose your place.
These shortcuts can transform Sublime Text from a simple text editor into a powerful development tool, helping you work faster and more effectively on every project.
