Hello, i’m kinda new here, so I really don’t know if publishing this here will be effective.
I would like to suggest an update for MongoDB Compass, i’ts kind a shortcut that we have on vscode.
The cntrl + D shortcut, that selects strings, and keeps selecting the same string if you press again, i think everybody knows what i’m talking about.
I also would like to do this update myself on the source code, so if you recommend this path, (me doing the update) would you have some tips to starting doing that?

Best regards to everyone

If it helps finding the right place and steps:

The MongoDB Compass repo is on GitHub. The Contributing section says:

For contributing, please refer to CONTRIBUTING.md

For issues, please create a ticket in our JIRA Project.

Is there anything else you’d like to see in Compass? Let us know by submitting suggestions in out feedback forum.

So if you’d like to do this yourself, then:

  1. Provide that feedback requesting it
  2. Read through the Contributing doc
  3. Fork the repo & add the feature
  4. Then make a Pull Request

Of course, there’s no guarantee it will be accepted :slight_smile:
