help ShortcutFoo FAQ

What is ShortcutFoo used for?

ShortcutFoo is an online practice platform for building keyboard shortcut memory in tools such as Vim, Emacs, Photoshop, VS Code, Git, and Notion. It works in a browser and focuses on typing real commands instead of reading a static cheat sheet. ([ShortcutFoo](https://www.shortcutfoo.com/))

How does ShortcutFoo's spaced repetition work?

The platform shows a command, asks you to type the shortcut, and brings missed shortcuts back until they become automatic. Spaced repetition controls the review schedule so users do not have to plan every practice session manually. ([ShortcutFoo](https://www.shortcutfoo.com/))

Can I practice shortcuts with hints in ShortcutFoo?

Yes. ShortcutFoo lets users drill at their own pace with hints turned on or off, then repeat shortcuts until the hand movement becomes familiar. Its dojo list includes applications such as Photoshop, Vim, Emacs, and VS Code. ([ShortcutFoo Dojos](https://www.shortcutfoo.com/app/dojos))

What happens when you pass a ShortcutFoo test?

ShortcutFoo says a score of 70 percent or higher can earn a nunchuck award and help users level up from Noob to Shark Norris. The test mode is designed to check recall under pressure rather than simple recognition. ([ShortcutFoo](https://www.shortcutfoo.com/))
