Quick Start Guide

This article showcases every content block available in the article editor. Use it as a reference when writing your own articles.


Text Formatting

You can make text bold, italic, underlined, or strikethrough. Combine them for bold italic text.

You can also use inline code for short code references like npm install or variable names like userId.

Headings

The editor supports three heading levels:

Heading 1

Heading 2

Heading 3

Use headings to structure your content into scannable sections.

Lists

Unordered List

  • First item in the list
  • Second item with bold text
  • Third item
    • Nested item underneath
    • Another nested item

Ordered List

  1. Step one — sign up for an account
  2. Step two — create your first category
  3. Step three — write your first article
  4. Step four — publish and share

Blockquotes

Use blockquotes to highlight important information, tips, or notes:

Note: Blockquotes are great for calling attention to key information that readers shouldn't miss.

Tip: You can also use them for tips, warnings, or any content that needs to stand out from the rest of the page.

Code Blocks

Code blocks support syntax highlighting. Here's a JavaScript example:

// Fetch articles from the API
async function getArticles() {
  const response = await fetch('/api/articles');
  const data = await response.json();
  return data;
}

A Python example:

# Simple function to greet a user
def greet(name: str) -> str:
    return f"Hello, {name}! Welcome to the knowledge base."

print(greet("World"))

A shell command:

npm run dev

Links

You can add inline links to any text. Links to other articles within your knowledge base work too — for example, go back to the Introduction.

Tables

Tables are useful for comparing features or presenting structured data:

Horizontal Rules

Use horizontal rules to visually separate sections:


Images

You can add images by uploading them directly in the editor. Drag and drop, paste from clipboard, or use the image button in the toolbar.

Putting It All Together

Now you've seen every block type the editor supports:

  • Text formatting — bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, inline code
  • Headings — H1, H2, H3
  • Lists — ordered and unordered
  • Blockquotes — for tips, notes, and callouts
  • Code blocks — with syntax highlighting
  • Links — inline and internal
  • Tables — for structured data
  • Horizontal rules — for visual separation
  • Images — upload, paste, or drag and drop
