Omarchy has one of the best keyboard driven workflows in Linux β and it also has a shortcut list long enough to scare most people away. That giant list is the exact reason most people bounce off Omarchy. So instead of memorizing all of it, I spent three days forcing myself to use Omarchy properly on the keyboard and applied the Pareto principle: the 12 shortcuts that actually matter, and nothing else.
Three shortcuts to get you started, nine more that will have you using Omarchy like a seasoned pro, and two bonus tricks that completely change the game. This is the ultimate beginner to pro guide to the Omarchy keyboard workflow β tiling windows, ten workspaces, floating windows, fullscreen focus and local voice dictation, all from the keyboard.
And this is not just an Omarchy thing. If you have ever been curious about Hyprland or any tiling window manager, the workspace mindset in this video is the single thing that decides whether it clicks for you.

β¨οΈ DAY 1 β THE SIX SHORTCUTS THAT GET YOU MOVING
– Super + K β searchable list of every shortcut in the system, the most important shortcut in Omarchy
– Super + W β close the focused window, because there is no close button
– Super + Space β the universal menu for apps, settings and system actions
– Super + Return β open the terminal
– Super + Shift + Return β open the browser
– Super + Shift + F β open the file manager
π§ DAY 2 β THE WORKSPACE RULES (THIS IS THE REAL SPEED)
– Super + 1 to Super + 0 β jump straight to any of the ten workspaces
– Super + Shift + number β throw the current window into another workspace and follow it there
– Super + O β float a window and pin it across every workspace
– Super + F β fullscreen one app for single task focus
– Why committing to workspaces early matters more than tiling itself
– Why Alt + Tab is massively underpowered on a tiling desktop
πͺ DAY 3 β THE TILING CONTROLS
– Super + arrow keys β move focus between tiled windows
– Super + Shift + arrow keys β swap a window with its neighbor
– Super + T β toggle a window between tiled and floating
– Super + Ctrl + X β bonus trick: local voice dictation that types for you, no cloud involved
π DID IT ACTUALLY MAKE ME FASTER?
I go through what each day actually felt like, what changed by Day 3, what I immediately missed when I went back to my regular desktop, and my honest verdict on who Omarchy is really for. Pause on the cheat sheet near the end and make all 12 shortcuts yours.

Open source AI is at a critical juncture. The recent surge in AI capabilities has exposed a glaring inefficiency: developers spend too much time rewriting and debugging code to run on diverse hardware, stifling innovation. In response, the PyTorch Conference North America is spotlighting a new open software platform for heterogeneous compute, powered by Mojo … Read more
New chips are shipping faster than ever before, but the ecosystem is being held back by having to rewrite and then re-debug the same code over and over again.
Chris Lattner, CEO and Co-founder, Modular and Executive Vice President of Advanced AI Software and Platforms, Qualcomm, will deliver a keynote at PyTorch Conference North America about an open software platform for heterogeneous compute powered by Mojo and MAX.
PyTorch has always been the place where the best models come together, and now there’s a way to get those models onto all kinds of hardware.
