Practice directly on your desktop

Press real shortcuts and see what they change. Learn Omarchy follows along on your desktop.

Real shortcuts

Keycaps light up as you press each combination. Hyprland verifies the result before the lesson continues.

Super+Return

On-screen pointing

Your guide flies to the bar button, workspace, window, or panel being explained.

Narrated captions

Hear each step and read along. Larger text, reduced motion, and mute are built in.

Hints and replay

Use a hint, replay a lesson, or hide the keycaps for a challenge. Earned progress stays yours.

Safe by design

Nothing edits your config, and nothing is installed without asking.

Printable cheatsheet

Open the full shortcut reference, print it, or save it as a PDF.

Shortcut Arcade: Turn practice into play

Build recall with three quick games. Use hints anytime, keep earned points, and revisit shortcuts that need practice.

Start here · No timer

Window Rescue

60 seconds

Shortcut Sprint

Recall as many shortcuts as you can in one minute. Replay the same deck to race your best pace.
