Other commenters aren't answering this. ctrl+` hides or opens the terminal. If you want to leave it open there's no command to toggle only your cursor focus from editor to terminal.

edit: I take it back, It's just not bound.{"key": "ctrl+#", "command": "workbench.action.terminal.focus"}

But you can't move the focus back with that toggle.

Good point! I already have double pressing the terminal toggle in my muscle memory, using focus might be worth changing that habit.

To "get out" of the terminal, cmd+1 sets focus on the editor again (to be precise: focus on the first editor group if there is a split view).

Ooh good spot. Thank you.

Yes, thanks very much! I actually had those too, as a backup but I think different combinations for opening and closing (or in this case toggling into terminal, and back into the editor) are more cumbersome than simply opening/closing.
