<h1>Keyboard Shortcuts</h1>
<h3>The <code>globalShortcut</code> and <code>Menu</code> modules can be used to define keyboard shortcuts.</h3>
<p>
In Electron, keyboard shortcuts are called accelerators.
They can be assigned to actions in your application's Menu,
or they can be assigned globally so they'll be triggered even when
your app doesn't have keyboard focus.
</p>

To try this demo, press <kbd>CommandOrControl+Alt+K</kbd> on your
keyboard.

<p>
Global shortcuts are detected even when the app doesn't have
keyboard focus, and they must be registered after the app's
`ready` event is emitted.

<h2>ProTip</h2>
<strong>Avoid overriding system-wide keyboard shortcuts.</strong>
<p>
When registering global shortcuts, it's important to be aware of
existing defaults in the target operating system, so as not to
override any existing behaviors. For an overview of each
operating system's keyboard shortcuts, view these documents:
