# Keybindings Reference

> **Complete keybinding reference across all tools**

## Quick Navigation

- **[Neovim](neovim.md)** - Editor keybindings
- **[tmux](tmux.md)** - Terminal multiplexer
- **[Shell](shell.md)** - Zsh vi-mode and shortcuts

## Universal Principles

### Vi-Style Navigation

Everywhere possible, we use vi-style keys:

| Key | Movement | Used In             |
| --- | -------- | ------------------- |
| `h` | Left     | Neovim, tmux, shell |
| `j` | Down     | Neovim, tmux, shell |
| `k` | Up       | Neovim, tmux, shell |
| `l` | Right    | Neovim, tmux, shell |

### Leader Keys

| Tool   | Leader   | Usage               |
| ------ | -------- | ------------------- |
| Neovim | `Space`  | All custom commands |
| tmux   | `Ctrl-a` | All tmux commands   |

### Consistency Patterns

1. **Window Management**
   - `<leader>w` prefix in Neovim
   - `Ctrl-a` prefix in tmux
   - Seamless navigation with vim-tmux-navigator

2. **Search Operations**
   - `/` for forward search everywhere
   - `?` for backward search
   - `n`/`N` for next/previous

3. **Copy/Paste**
   - Visual selection with `v`
   - Yank with `y`
   - System clipboard integration

## Learning Path

1. **Week 1**: Master basic navigation (`hjkl` everywhere)
2. **Week 2**: Learn leader key commands
3. **Week 3**: Add visual mode operations
4. **Week 4**: Advanced combinations and macros
