# Slash Menu

> Use the slash menu to quickly add content, format blocks, insert media, and access actions while writing.

Craft's slash menu helps you add, format, and organize document content without leaving the keyboard. Type `/` while editing a document, then start typing the name of what you want to do.

## Adding Content

Click in an empty area and start typing. To insert content at a specific location, drag and drop it into your document on macOS, or use the insert controls available on your platform.

When a block is focused, press the **Space bar** to insert a new block below it.

## The Slash Menu

Type `/` while writing to open the quick menu. You can use it to find commands such as:

* **Text and block styles**: Title, Subtitle, Heading, Body, Page, Card, Focus, and Block
* **Lists and tasks**: Todo, Toggle, Bullet List, Numbered List, task schedules, and deadlines
* **Insert options**: Tables, files, images, separators, page breaks, code blocks, formulas, Mermaid diagrams, and whiteboards
* **Dates and reminders**: Today, Tomorrow, Yesterday, Now, and reminder options
* **Collections**: Table, Gallery, and Kanban Collections
* **AI Assistant**: access AI actions from the editor

The menu is context-aware, so the options can change depending on whether you're editing text, working in a table, selecting blocks, or using a specific platform.

<Info title="Quick Tip">
  Start typing immediately after `/` to filter the menu. For example, type `/table`, `/heading`, or `/reminder` to narrow the list.

## Other Fast Typing Shortcuts

Slash commands are one keyboard-first way to work in Craft. You can also use:

* `:` followed by a name to insert [emoji](/en/write-and-edit/formatting/emoji)
* `@` or `[[` to link to pages, blocks, or dates
* Markdown-style shortcuts such as `#`, `-`, `[]`, `>`, and `**bold**`
* Keyboard shortcuts such as `Cmd+B` / `Ctrl+B` for bold and `Tab` / `Shift+Tab` for indentation
