# Quick Styling Methods

> Format your content quickly using keyboard shortcuts, markdown, or the slash menu.

Beyond using buttons and visual controls, Craft offers several keyboard-driven ways to format your content quickly. Choose the method that fits your workflow best.

## The Slash Command Menu

Press `/` while editing or with blocks selected to open the command menu. Start typing to filter for the desired style or action.

Learn more about the [slash menu](/en/write-and-edit/formatting/slash-menu).

## Markdown Formatting

Craft supports the full suite of markdown formatting options. For example, type `**bold text**` and it will appear as **bold text**.

See the complete [list of markdown shortcuts](/en/write-and-edit/formatting/markdown-shortcuts).

## Keyboard Shortcuts

Craft supports over 75 keyboard shortcuts across all platforms. Hover over buttons to see their shortcuts - here are some favorites:

* `Cmd +` / `Ctrl +` to increase text size
* `Cmd -` / `Ctrl -` to decrease text size
* `Cmd B` / `Ctrl B` for **bold**
* `Cmd I` / `Ctrl I` for *italic*
* `Tab` to increase indent
* `Shift Tab` to decrease indent

<Info title="Discover Shortcuts">
  On Mac, click the question mark button in the bottom right corner to see all available shortcuts. On other platforms, hover over toolbar buttons to reveal their keyboard shortcuts.

### Indent Depth Limit

Craft supports up to **5 levels of indentation** for lists and nested content. This limit ensures documents remain readable and perform well across all devices, especially on mobile.

If you need deeper nesting for complex hierarchies, consider:

* Breaking content into separate documents with links between them
* Using Collections for deeply structured data
* Creating subpages within a parent document

<Warning title="Mobile Optimization">
  The 5-level limit is particularly important for mobile devices, where deeply nested content can be difficult to read and navigate on smaller screens.
</Warning>

## Choosing Your Method

* **Slash menu** - Great for discovering features and formatting options
* **Markdown** - Fast for those familiar with markdown syntax
* **Keyboard shortcuts** - Most efficient once memorized for frequently used actions

All three methods work together, so you can mix and match based on what you're doing.
