Keyboard shortcuts have landed in the Cloudflare dashboard!
Hey there, it's Shii-chan! Today I've got a little tip that both mouse fans and keyboard fans will love.
Cloudflare ChangelogWhat was announced?
The Cloudflare Changelog announced that keyboard shortcuts have arrived in the Cloudflare dashboard. You can now navigate, switch context, and perform common actions using just your keyboard. Press ? and the full list of available shortcuts pops right up.
The story so far
Until now, moving around the dashboard or switching between accounts and zones meant tracing through menus with your mouse and clicking. Even a small move made your hands shuttle back and forth between mouse and keyboard, which was quietly annoying.
What changes
From now on you can jump straight to the screen you want without lifting your hands off the keyboard. Jumping to frequently used pages or switching accounts takes just a few keypresses. Once it clicks, your whole workflow gets noticeably snappier.
