While the menu bar and toolbar lets you perform various operations on notebook, it is desirable to be able to use keyboard shortcuts to perform them quickly.

Jupyter Notebooks have two different keyboard input modes −

  • Command Mode − Binds the keyboard to notebook level actions. Indicated by a grey cell border with a blue left margin.

  • Edit Mode − When you are typing in a cell. Indicated by a green cell border.
