What is Shortcuts.design?

Shortcuts.design is a free, curated directory of keyboard shortcuts for the tools designers use every day. It covers Figma, Adobe apps, Sketch, Framer, Blender, Notion, Webflow and many more, with a clean searchable interface that helps creatives learn faster, work with fewer mouse trips and build real muscle memory for their design stack.

Pros: what Shortcuts.design does well

  • Clean, fast reference for shortcuts across dozens of design tools
  • Completely free with no account required
  • Helps speed up daily design and no-code workflows

Cons: where it falls short

  • Reference-only; no interactive training or shortcut practice mode
  • Shortcuts can vary by platform and version, so always verify locally

Who Shortcuts.design is for

Designers, creators and students who want a quick, searchable shortcut reference for Figma, Adobe, Notion and other creative tools.

Who can skip it

Users looking for guided courses, interactive shortcut trainers or app-specific official documentation.
