Keyboard shortcuts are the quickest way around Trackli on a computer. You don't need to learn them all. Q for quick add and Cmd+K for the command palette will get you a long way.
Single-letter shortcuts like Q and N only work when you're not typing in a box, so they never get in the way of writing a task.

Why two keys on Mac?
Most view and create shortcuts use Cmd+Ctrl on a Mac and Ctrl+Alt on Windows. That's so they don't clash with your browser's own shortcuts (ex: Cmd+T opens a new browser tab).
Tips
- In the command palette, use the arrow keys to move and
Enter to choose. It lists actions and their shortcuts, so it's a good way to learn them.
- On a Mac,
Cmd+Ctrl+D in the Calendar switches to the daily view rather than My Day. Use the sidebar or Cmd+K to get to My Day from there.
- More time savers are in Tips.
