These are the default keyboard shortcuts provided by Notes.

Right now they can't be easily customized, but [that's on the roadmap](https://github.com/nuttyartist/notes/issues/394)! :)

## Global shortcuts

On supported systems, these shortcuts can be activated even if Notes' window is not active at the moment.

| Sequence                                                     | Description                     |
| ------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------- |
| <kbd>Win</kbd> + <kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>N</kbd> *(Windows)* | Toggle Notes' window visibility |
| <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>N</kbd> *(macOS)*                     | Toggle Notes' window visibility |
| <kbd>Meta</kbd> + <kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>N</kbd> *(Linux)*  | Toggle Notes' window visibility |


## Local shortcuts
