About ClickUp and its shortcuts
ClickUp covers a lot of ground, and its keyboard tries to keep up: creating tasks, searching, moving between spaces and views, and a set of slash-style commands inside the editor. The search command is the practical way through a large workspace.
ClickUp changes its interface often and features vary by plan, so commands can move or disappear between releases. It is a web application, with the usual browser conflicts.
