Overview of the NocoDocs rich text editor and its capabilities.

The NocoDocs editor is a block-based rich text editor that supports a wide range of content types — from simple text formatting to code blocks, math equations, tables, and media embeds.

Editor Layout

The editor interface consists of:

  1. Document Title — The title area at the top of the editor. Click to edit.
  2. Content Area — The main writing area where you add and arrange blocks.
  3. Bubble Menu — A context-sensitive formatting toolbar that appears when you select text.
  4. Slash Command Menu — Type / anywhere to access 60+ block and formatting options.
