Adding formatting to your articles is perfectly possible and already configured for you by default.
Start adding format to your text
Go to the article editor and by selecting a piece of text (a word, a sentence, a paragraph...) the formatting toolbar will appear. These are the options available:
Bold
Italics
Underline
Strikethrough
Small text
Code formatting
Create links
H2 heading
H3 heading
H4 heading
Quote
Bullet-point list (also indented)
13. Numbered list
Codeblock
Create a comment out of the selection (more info)
2. Links
For links, you have the option to open the link in a new window and/or set it as a nofollow hyperlink. There are four options to choose from:
External: links to a different website or page.
Section: links go to a heading (useful for creating a table of contents, more info).
Email: mailto links to allow visitors to create a new email with your chosen address.
Phone: a phone number that when clicked on will call using the visitor's default calling software.
3. Code blocks
If you need your code to be shown in a full block use the code block icon or press CTRL/CMD + SHIFT + J
Alternatively, you can start a new line and type ``` (3x backtick) to begin. You can now type your code. Press Enter when you are finished to have it formatted as a code block. Use Shift+Enter to add a new line of code and Enter again to finish.
Inline code
Select the text you want to highlight as inline code and press the inline code button or press CTRL/CMD + J.
