Lightroom keyboard shortcuts part 1 (Module Navigation)
Lightroom has many keyboard shortcuts. In this article I will cover module navigation keyboard shortcuts.
The name of each module is listed in the top-right corner of Lightroom window, but those are not just links, which can be clicked to go to corresponding module, they also have numbers attached to them.

So you can also press Ctrl+Alt+(module number) in Windows, or Cmd+Opt+(module number) on Macs to jump to corresponding module.
You could also use G, E, and C to go to Library Grid, Loupe, and Compare mode correspondingly, and D to switch to Develop module.
Summing everything up we have following table:
| Action | Windows shortcut | Mac shortcut | Go to Library Compare mode | C |
|---|---|---|
| Go to Library Loupe mode | E | |
| Go to Library Grid mode | G | |
| Go to Develop module | D | |
| Go to Library module | Ctrl+Alt+1 | Cmd+Opt+1 |
| Go to Develop module | Ctrl+Alt+2 | Cmd+Opt+2 |
| Go to Slideshow module | Ctrl+Alt+3 | Cmd+Opt+3 |
| Go to Print module | Ctrl+Alt+4 | Cmd+Opt+4 |
| Go to Web module | Ctrl+Alt+5 | Cmd+Opt+5 |
