The decks
Four decks. Every shortcut from the maker’s own page.
Microsoft, Apple and Google publish their shortcuts. We copied the keys, wrote the descriptions in our own words, linked the page beside each one, and turned them into reps.

How a rep works
Ten seconds a shortcut. A few minutes a day.
Read the action
“Jump one word to the left.” No keys shown until you answer.
Press the real keys
The page reads which keys you pressed. Shortcuts the browser or your computer keeps for itself, like switching apps, are a four-way pick instead.
Misses come back first
A free practice card remembers each shortcut’s box. Right moves it up and further away; wrong brings it back today.

Plain answers
Before you start
- Do I need an account?
- No. A practice card is a private link. No name, no email, no password.
- What gets saved?
- For each shortcut: right or wrong, how long you took, and when it is due again. Never what you type.
- Is this a class or a school?
- No. It is a practice tool. There are no courses, grades or certificates, and it has nothing to do with Cuyahoga County or Tri-C.
- Which browser?
- Any current browser on a computer with a keyboard. The Browser deck uses Google Chrome’s shortcuts as Google lists them. Other browsers share many of them, but not all.
