Numbered bookmarks will allow us to select a block of code, bookmark it and easily navigate back to it using the bookmark number.

In this lesson, you will learn how to use the `Numbered Bookmarks` extension to navigate your code faster.

### Keyboard Shortcuts

The default keyboard shortcut for adding a code bookmark is `cmd+shift+#` where `#` is a number from 0 to 9, This might interfere with other system's keyboard shortcuts like taking a screenshot `cmd+shift+4` and `cmd+shift+4`. You can change the default one to `shift+alt+#`.

To navigate bookmarks you can use `cmd+#` where `#` is your bookmark number

You can see here my bookmark. I go somewhere and edit this, then go back to my bookmark using command + one, and change this accordingly.

[0:44] You can also add some more bookmarks to the code. If you do shift, option, and then number, you can navigate through them using command, and the number goes from one to nine.
