# Slash Menu

> Use the slash menu and keyboard shortcuts to quickly add and format content.

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.

<Info title="Quick Tip">
  You can start typing immediately after `/` to filter the menu options. For example, `/table` will jump directly to the table block.
