Knit documentation

How to write, organize, and share knowledge in Knit.

Welcome. These pages explain how to get things done in Knit, one task at a time. New here? Start with Create a site and write your first page: it takes a few minutes, and everything else builds on it.

A Knit site: folders and pages in the sidebar, and an open page with its icon, tags, and a highlighted decision.

Start

Writing

  • The editorBlocks, the slash menu, the toolbar, keyboard shortcuts, mentions, callouts, checklists, and code.
  • Bring content inPaste from documents, Markdown, or HTML source and keep editable headings, lists, tables, and code.
  • TablesInsert a table, add and remove rows and columns, and format cells.
  • ImagesAdd, select, resize, and place images, or view them full size.

Organizing

  • TagsTag pages, find every page with a tag, and tidy up tag names and colors.
