The editor
The page editor is designed to stay out of your way. You type like you would anywhere, and when you need something richer than a paragraph, one keystroke — / — brings up everything you can add. This page is a tour of those building blocks.
Blocks: the building pieces
Section titled “Blocks: the building pieces”Every page is made of blocks stacked top to bottom. A block can be a paragraph, a heading, a list item, a table, a code block, an image, and so on. Type / anywhere to open the insert menu and choose a block, or keep typing to filter the list.
Text and structure
Section titled “Text and structure”| Block | What it’s for |
|---|---|
| Paragraph | Ordinary body text — just start typing. |
| Heading 1–5 | Section titles. Headings also become the page’s outline. |
| Bulleted list | An unordered list of points. |
| Numbered list | An ordered, step-by-step list. |
| Task list | A checklist with tickable checkboxes — great for to-dos inside a doc. |
| Quote | A highlighted block quote for callouts or citations. |
| Table | A grid of cells you can type into. |
For anything technical, you have two options:
- Inline code for a
snippetin the middle of a sentence. - Code blocks for multi-line code, kept in a monospaced, formatted box.
def greet(name): return f"Hello, {name}!"Emoji and mentions
Section titled “Emoji and mentions”- Type
:to open the emoji picker and drop an emoji inline. - Type
@to mention a teammate. They’ll be notified, and the mention links to their profile — handy for “ask @Maria to review this section.” Mentions work in page content and in comments.
Images and file embeds
Section titled “Images and file embeds”Drag a file straight onto the page, paste an image from your clipboard, or use the insert menu. Images render inline, and other files (PDFs, documents, and more) embed as attachments you can preview or download. BridgeApp automatically generates optimized sizes so pages stay fast to load. For more on how files are handled across the product, see Files & attachments.
