If you are using VS Code, you probably already know that you can open and close the integrated terminal with the default keyboard shortcut of Ctrl + ` or ^ + ` (Mac).
By default, the focus changes, or toggles, between the editor and a terminal when opening/closing the terminal with the shortcut listed above. So toggling between the editor where you are writing your code, and the terminal where you are executing commands, etc, consists of closing and reopening the terminal in order to change focus.
