One of the most powerful shortcuts is the search command functionality invoked via: <⌘> + <⇧> + P

---|---|
View: Command Palette... | <⇧> + <⌘> + P |
File: Go to File | <⌘> + P |
File: Open Recent | <^> + R |
Create New Integrated Terminal | <⇧> + <^> + \ |
Markdown: open perview | <⇧> + <⌘> + V |
Replace in open file | <⌥> + <⌘> + F |
