(6) This work is never done! We are continuously adding new shortcuts, refining existing ones, and adding guardrails to prevent regressions, so more to come.

Big thanks to the entire team: @mwichary, @okaysee, Rachel Miller, @pseullah, @msfeldstein!

Last year @figma shipped keyboard shortcut support for several non-US QWERTY keyboards. The process took us on a bit of a rabbit hole 🐇 🕳️, so I wanted to share what I learned…

“The user is not like me”—this mantra from @cmuhcii reminds me to always build from our users’ needs.

We've added 8 more layouts (UK, SE, FI, DK, NO, IT, ES, LATAM) so more folks can work faster in @Figma.

It's been fun to dig into ⌨️ quirks with @mwichary @dorothchen @SulaYang1 + Rachel Miller!

Been incredible to work with such talented colleagues like Rachel, @dorothchen, and David Winslow on this effort on the engineering side, and also looking forward to what’s to come!

@jensimmons If this thread is still open, I have something very specific!

There's a long-standing bug[1] where input events are fired in the wrong order. Most recently, it has been causing issues when working on Figma keyboard shortcuts.
