Add a paragraph block to insert formatted text, inline images and more |
A paragraph is the most basic content block you can use on GitBook.
{% hint style="info" %} You can add other inline content to your paragraph, such as emojis, images and Math & TeX.
You can also format your text using the context menu or keyboard shortcuts, or using Markdown. {% endhint %}
Professionally printed material in English typically does not indent the first paragraph, but indents those that follow. For example, Robert Bringhurst states that we should “set opening paragraphs flush left.”
Because a paragraph block is just text, that’s how it’s represented in Markdown.
{% code overflow="wrap" %}
