How do I jump to edit and search fields with VO on Mac like you do with NVDA?

Hey guys, what's the best way to jump to an edit or search field with VO? Like with NVDA you can press 'e' or shift 'e' and it'll bring you to the next or previous editable field in a website or Electron-based apps. How do I do that with VoiceOver?
An aditional question, how do I jump to the edit field in say, TextEdit or Google Docs? Sometimes I open it, or command tab back to it and I have to Vo arrow a thousand times till I reach it. Frankly it's frustrating. Is there a better way to do this?
And a final question, is there an app that functions same like Notepad on Windows? What I mean is, just open the app, start typing, and that's it. No cluttered interface that hinders VO navigation like on TextEdit.
Thank you all!
