Craft makes it easy to add and format content as you write using keyboard shortcuts and the slash menu.

​
Adding Content

Click on any empty area and start typing. To insert content at a specific location, drag and drop it into your document (macOS). When a block is focused, press the Space bar to insert a new block below it.

​
Formatting Shortcuts

Start your text blocks with these characters to automatically apply formatting:
  • - or * for bullet lists
  • 1. or any number for numbered lists
  • x or [] for tasks
  • #, ##, ### for Title, Subtitle, or Heading
  • > or | for block quotes
You can also use keyboard shortcuts:
  • Cmd + or Cmd - to increase or decrease text sizes
  • : followed by a name to insert emojis
  • @ to mention and link to other documents or blocks

​
The Slash Menu

Type / anywhere in your document to open the quick menu. This gives you access to:
  • All block types (headings, lists, tables, etc.)
  • Media blocks (images, videos, files)
  • Advanced blocks (collections, code blocks, embeds)
  • Layout options (columns, dividers)
The slash menu is context-aware and will show the most relevant options based on where you are in your document.
You can start typing immediately after / to filter the menu options. For example, /table will jump directly to the table block.
