| 12 | +## Navigation |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +* `ctrl a` and `ctrl e` |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +For moving to the beginning/end of the line (just like in your terminal/command line!) |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +* `cmd + l` |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +Bring the URL bar into focus. |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +* `cmd + enter` |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +Duplicate the current tab (while in URL focus). |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +* `cmd + shift + t` |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +Open a tab you just closed (a lifesaver for my trigger-happy fingers). |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +* `cmd + d` |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +Add a bookmark (extra tip: when saving bookmarks to the bookmarks bar, delete all the text meaning only an icon will get displayed => you can cram many more bookmarks into your bookmarks bar 💪). |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +## Dev tools |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | + * `cmd + shift + c` |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +Toggles the inspect element mode (and makes for faster DOM inspection). |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +* Toggle the `console` from dev tools by pressing `esc` key. |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +* `cmd+ option + i` |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +To open the dev tools (in the last panel you used). |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +* `shift + enter` |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +For a multi-line entry (in the `Console`) |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +* `cmd + [` and `cmd + ]` |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +To focus next/previous panel in the dev tools. |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +## Have you ever wondered how to access `console.log` values? Wonder no more! |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +Go to the console, right-click on the logged value and click **Store as Global Variable**. |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +Now, this value will be stored in a variable `temp1` (`temp0` in Firefox). Nuts! |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +The subsequent values (in the same session) will be stored as`temp2`, `temp3`... |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | +To get that data onto your clipboard type: `copy(temp1)` 🤯 |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | +## Firefox extras |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +* `cmd + shift + p` |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +To start private browsing. |
| 69 | + |
| 70 | +* `cmd + k` |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | +Move focus to the Search bar. |
