# Slash Commands

Slash commands are a feature in Notetxt which allow you to insert **predefined Markdown syntax or content** into a note.

Slash commands begin with a `/`, followed by the name of the command.

{% hint style="info" %}
Slash commands can only be used at the start of a new line that has no text on it.
{% endhint %}

The full list of slash commands, a short description of them, and their aliases are shown in the table below:
