How to change the keyboard shortcut for IntelliSense in VS Code
Table of Contents
By default the shortcut to trigger intellisense on VS Code (for mac) is ⌃ – Control + Space. Too bad I already use that as a Spotlight Search.
I couldn't initiate IntelliSense for a very long time because I couldn't (too lazy) find any Keyboard shortcuts for "IntelliSense". Today, I will show you how to change key bindings for IntelliSense.

Key bindings for IntelliSense
To change keyboard shortcuts in VS Code, Go to Code > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts.
You will see all commands and their key binding.
There are many commands relating to IntelliSense, but the one that triggers IntelliSense is named "Trigger Suggest". And that is what you are looking for.
To change key binding, double click on the current key binding. Then you will see a popup asking for a new key binding. Enter a combination of the keys you want, then press "Enter".
That's all you need to do. Happy Coding!
