WebStorm Hotkeys

This page collects 202 keyboard shortcuts for WebStorm, spread across 11 sections: Debugging, Editing, General, Live Templates / Snippets, Multiple carets and selections, Navigation, Refactoring, Running, Search/Replace, Usage Search, and VCS/Local History. Bindings for both macOS and Windows are included.

Editing and Navigation are the foundation - they handle the actions you repeat dozens of times a day. Refactoring and Usage Search are close behind, especially once a codebase grows. Live Templates / Snippets and VCS/Local History can be picked up as you settle into your workflow.

The mapping mostly follows the standard JetBrains convention: Cmd on macOS maps to Ctrl on Windows, and Option maps to Alt. Some shortcuts for VCS operations and Running have slightly different key combinations, so it is worth checking both columns if you switch machines.

Editing, Navigation, and General are used constantly. Refactoring shortcuts become second nature once learned. Debugging and Running are situational - most developers check those when setting up a run configuration or troubleshooting. Usage Search and VCS/Local History are often looked up rather than memorized.
