Keyboard shortcuts
The full shortcut reference — and how to live in Berthly without touching the mouse.
The essentials
| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
| ⌘K | Open the command palette — every action, searchable |
| ⌘1–⌘6 | Switch sidebar sections: Compute, Volumes, Networks, Images, Registries, System |
| ⌘⌥1 | Detail tab: Overview |
| ⌘⌥2 | Detail tab: Logs |
| ⌘⌥3 | Detail tab: Terminal |
Beyond these, every action in Berthly has a menu item — and menu items have shortcuts, so anything you do often is learnable from the menu bar.
Living in Berthly keyboard-only
The palette isn’t a shortcut list — it’s the fastest way to do things. A complete pull-to-shell workflow, no mouse involved:
- ⌘K, type pull — pull the image you need.
- ⌘K, type run — create and start a container from it.
- ⌘⌥2 — watch the logs stream as it boots.
- ⌘⌥3 — drop into a real shell inside the container.
- ⌘K, type the container’s name — stop, start, or delete it from anywhere.
The palette matches on both actions and resources, so typing a container or machine name surfaces its lifecycle actions directly — no need to navigate to it first.
Working with the terminal
The integrated terminal (built on SwiftTerm) is a real login shell in your container or machine. Standard terminal keys work as you’d expect; use ⌘⌥1 to hop back to Overview without leaving the keyboard.
