Keyboard shortcuts

You can include keyboard shortcuts in the menu to help users learn them. Shortcuts trigger specific actions without the need to navigate to the menu itself. As users become familiar with them, it can really speed up their workflow.

There's no need to create shortcuts for all possible actions and menu items. Add them for the most common actions like copying, cutting, and pasting. Use familiar shortcuts whenever possible, since following established standards helps with adoption and ease of use.

Remember, only advanced users rely heavily on shortcuts, so they should never be the only way to complete a task.
