Markdown syntax
AuroraDocs supports Markdown shortcuts while typing. As you finish a Markdown pattern at the start of a line or inline, it converts automatically to the matching block or formatting.
Block shortcuts (start of line)
| You type | Result |
|---|---|
# | Heading 1 |
## | Heading 2 |
### | Heading 3 |
- or * | Bullet list |
1. | Numbered list |
[ ] | To-do (unchecked) |
[x] | To-do (checked) |
> | Toggle or quote |
``` | Code block |
$$ | Math block |
--- | Divider |
Inline formatting
| You type | Result |
|---|---|
**text** | Bold |
*text* or _text_ | Italic |
`text` | Inline code |
~~text~~ | |
$formula$ | Inline math (KaTeX) |
[label](url) | Hyperlink |
Pasting Markdown
Paste Markdown text directly into the editor and it converts to blocks automatically. This is the fastest way to import content from other tools.
Importing Markdown files
Drag .md files into Settings → Import to import them as pages. See Import & export for details.
