This note demonstrates the current capabilities of the Corelato editor. It serves as both a formatting showcase and a reference for users learning how to use Notes.

Headings

Heading 1

Heading 2

Heading 3

Heading 4

Heading 5

Heading 6

Headings can be styled from the drop down menu labeled "Paragraph" in the toolbar or you can type "# ", "## ", "### ", and so on on a new line.

Text Formatting

Styling

• Bold
  • You can use the toolbar or Ctrl + B
• Italic
  • You can use the toolbar or Ctrl + I
• Underline
  • You can use the toolbar or Ctrl + U
• Strikethrough
  • You must use the toolbar for this feature
• Superscript and Subscript
  • In the tool bar, users will find x² and x₂ buttons. Clicking those before and after the desired text, or highlighting the desired text and clicking those buttons, will let users user superscript and subscript.
  • This is important for formulas like :
    • E = mc²
    • H₂0

Colors

• Default (dark or light based on which mode the user is in.)
• Violet
• Mint
• Green
• Amber
• Red

To change the color of text, highlight the text with your cursor and select the desired color from the "Text color" drop down in the tool bar.

Highlight

• Amber

• Green
• Mint
• Blue
• Violet
• Rose

All highlighted text uses a dark font for now. This is to avoid any display issues when switching between theme modes. If you change a text color in a highlighted note, it will display with that text color on the public notes. This will cause readability issues.

To highlight text, highlight the text with your cursor and then select the color from the "Highlight" drop down in the toolbar.

To remove a highlight, highlight the text you want to be not highlighted with your cursor and then select the highlight icon button (beside the "Highlight" drop down.

Page Formatting

If you're this far in the note, you've likely already noticed the section dividers. To create a divider, just type "---" on its own line. It will automatically go to the next line after the third "-".

Lists

Bulleted Lists

• You can start a bulleted list from the toolbar or you can type "- ".

• Lists will continue until you press "Enter" twice (or however many times it takes you to get to the first level + 1.
  • You can also make multiple levels of bullets by hitting Tab.
    1. You can highlight this text and use the tool bar to change this to a numbered list.
• To go back a level, you can either hit Enter or Shift + Tab. This took two times to get back to.

Numbered Lists

1. You can start a numbered list from the toolbar or by typing "1. ".
2. When you hit enter, it will automatically increase the number.
   1. When you hit Enter and then Tab, it will make a nested number.
      1. You can do this as many times are you want.
   2. Shift + Tab or Enter brought me back to this level.
3. Shit + Tab or Enter brought me back to this level again.
   • Additionally, you can have your cursor in this text and use the toolbar to change this to a bullet.

Tasks

• You can start a task list from the toolbar or you can type "[ ]" and the list will start automatically.
• You can complete tasks by checking the checkbox. This shows on public, notes too.
  • You can still nest Tasks.
• Public notes do not allow readers to check tasks off.

Blockquotes

You've already seen these on this page. Block quotes can help you see important text at a glance.

You can either use the toolbar (the double quote button) or type "> " on a new line.

Links

Linking external pages are often important for users. Right now, link text by highlighting the text you want to create a link to and clicking the Link button in the toolbar. Below, I will type "Home" and link to the home page of Corelato.

Home

Soon, Corelato will support markdown links and back links. This means you'll be able to link to external sites with [Home](https://corelato.com) and link to your other notes!

Code Blocks

Code blocks are important to many users. This feature is going to grow in its capabilities. Users using code block are likely already familiar with markdown languages. They work very similarly here. You can either use the "Code" drop down in the toolbar and select your language or type "``` " on a new line.

Code blocks also currently support notating which language you are using (for JavaScript, TypeScript, TSX, JSX, Java, Python, SQL, Bash, JSON, HTML, and CSS). To do this, type "```python", "```typescript", or whatever language you are using on a new line.

type Course = {
     id: string;
     title: string;
}

You can escape by clicking the next line or using your down arrow. This feature is also useful for showing charts as well.

Users                         ID
Demo                   XXXXXXXXXXXXX809325790

Soon, code blocks will support syntax highlight and more languages.

Additionally, you can wrap text in a "``" to display small code quickly. For instance, your user_id is linked to a course_id.

Tables

To add a table, click the Table button in the toolbar.

Tables automatically populate with 3 columns. Users can remove columns with the "- Col" button in the toolbar. Users can add columns with the Column button in the tool bar to the left of "- Col". Tables populate with two rows under the headings. If a user needs to remove a row, they should click the "- Row" in the toolbar. To the left of that button, the Rows button will add rows; however, rows are added automatically with tab.

To escape a table, hit the down arrow.

Images

Right now, Corelato supports linking external images. Soon, users will be able to upload documents and images.

To upload an image, click to image button in the tool bar and insert the link.
