Moving, Duplicating and Deleting
The most common thing you'll do in your editor is move, duplicate and delete lines. Historically, we have done this with the use of copy/paste and the delete key when necessary. VS Code contains functionality that makes this process much more productive.
Here are a few more keyboard shortcuts to add to your repertoire.
Note that you don't need to select a line in VS Code to copy/cut it. Just put your cursor anywhere on the line and press Cmd/Ctrl + C or Cmd/Ctrl + X and the entire line will be cut or copied. This is the default behavior of the editor.
Open the "index.html" file in the "start" folder.
Move the "title" tag above the "link" tag.
Put your cursor anywhere on the "title" line
Press Opt/Alt + Up Arrow
Duplicate the "description meta tag
Put your cursor anywhere on the line with the "meta" tag that has a name of "description"
Press Opt/Alt + Shift + Down Arrow

Delete the "description" meta tag
Put your cursor anywhere on the line that has the
meta
