Did Intellij's keymap had binded special features compare to VSCode
If you want to, you could set the keymap to vscode in the Settings | Keymap (no plugin needed). If you still need to use vscode, this might be easier for you. Otoh if you are planning to switch to IntelliJ IDEA for JVM (and possibly other IntelliJ based IDEs for other languages) I'd recommend learning the shortcuts. For IntelliJ IDEA, you might also be interested in command completion ( https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/command-completion.html ) which should save you from learning all the shortcuts.

switching to IntelliJ from VSCode, how do I import all the custom keybindings from VSCode?
Not sure how to import all of them, but there is a plug-in call vscode key bindings that will probably get you started. As someone who uses both vs code and phpstorm daily, this is what I use. More on reddit.com

Migrate from VS Code to IntelliJ IDEA | IntelliJ IDEA Documentation
August 17, 2026 - To set this keymap as the default, go to Settings | Keymap and select VSCode. Learning IntelliJ IDEA shortcuts will come in handy even if you decide to switch to another JetBrains IDE later on – the shortcuts are the same in almost all of them.

Hi, I'm just new to Intellij. I'm previous VSCode user, and I am doing with a long-term project in Java which makes me made this decision. And I found the shortcuts are different between VSCode and Intellij. After I had using plugin to change the shortcuts to VSCode's mode which I was used to becuz I still need VSCode for non-Java projects, I'm thinking if I will lose anything or feature after doing this.

r/learnprogramming on Reddit: Keymap VSCode not working in intelliJ
July 8, 2022 -

Hello,

I downloaded the concerning plugin to get the keymap of VSCode into my intelliJ.
However, it won't give me the shortcuts I was used to in VSCode.

For instance, ctrl+d pused multiple times wouldn't select other occurrences of the marked characters in the script. Instead, it simple copy paste the marked characters behind the current selection.

I suspect as a possible cause for this behaviour that my keyboard is not an English/US-American one.
If this is the problem, is there any workaround for it?

Highly appreciate any kind of tips, thank you.
