I think WebStorm has the problem that the keyboard shortcuts are more or less meaningless key-combinations, it's difficult to remember them unless you use them frequently.
Luckily you can reassign the functions to different keys. For instance I have re-assigned "Show Breakpoints" to Ctrl-Break. Easy to remember right?
I re-assigned Ctrl-I to also Ctrl-E. Why? Because that Evaluates Expressions.
I've been using WebStorm for years now and I still discover useful stuff and keyboard shortcuts in it. That is both great but also a sign of how it is not completely obvious how to do things.
Recently I discovered what I think is the greatest shortcut of them all: Ctrl-Tab.
That pops up a widget from which I can choose which tool-window to make current. Keep the Ctrl down and you can use Tab or arrow-keys to navigate to the tool-window-name you want to activate.
