We shouldn’t need a plugin to set a hotkey for creating code blocks.
Same for this feature request: Include an option to toggle both sidebars as a hotkey. It has been archived because the proposed solution is to use a Windows-only third-party software. Well no, sidebars are UI parts and a hotkey to toggle both at the same time needs to be implemented. Can’t go in “focus mode” / “clean view” / “fullscreen” without it.
