For example, how to switch between the Explorer and the Editors, or between the Editors and the Terminal?

You can use the short cuts:

  • Ctrl+0 : go to Explorer
  • Ctrl+1 : go to Editor Group 1
  • Ctrl+2 : go to Editor Group 2
  • ....
  • Ctrl+9 : go to Editor Group 9

Press Ctrl+Shift+P to bring up the command palette and search for Focus. There are several commands to switch the focus, e.g. View: Focus Active Editor Group or Explorer: Focus on Outline View. You can assign custom keybindings to those.
