The important point is that the numbers for these shortcuts must be typed on the number pad and, alas, not all computers (especially the small laptops) have the number pad on their keyboard, making it impossible to use them, forcing users to find the desirred characters somewhere on the internet or in other parts of code and copy/paste them, a very annoying procedure. The native backtick shortcut on Windows is Alt + 96, whereas the native shortcut for the tilde is Alt + 126. If you are lucky enough to have the numberpad on your pc, then you could use the default shortcuts provided by windows… if you can remember them! In any case, typing these characters on Windows is quite uncomfortable. Or maybe, you were trying to set up a CSS sibling selector. Maybe you use the new ES6 syntax and needed the backtick to interpolate your variables inside a string. If you are a developer and work with Windows, it is very likely that at somepoint in time, you faced with an annoying little issue: typing a backtick and/or a tide in your code.
