# Write your first page

From blank page to a formatted, shareable doc in a couple of minutes.

<Answer>
Open Notes in the Easerix app, choose New page in the sidebar, type a title,
and start writing. Press "/" for blocks — headings, lists, tables, code,
images — and everything saves automatically as you type. Your page is private
until you move it to a shared space or share it.

## Steps

1. Open **Notes** in the Easerix app ([app.easerix.com](https://app.easerix.com)).
2. Choose **New page** in the sidebar. New pages land in the space you create them from — **Private** by default.
3. Type a title, press **Enter**, and write. The header shows **Saved** / **Saving…** so you always know where you stand.
4. Press **/** anywhere to insert a block: headings, bulleted and numbered lists, to-do lists, quotes, code blocks, callouts, tables, dividers, and images.
5. Give the page an icon with the emoji picker above the title, and use the **+** next to any page in the sidebar to nest a page inside it.

## Formatting that just works

- **Markdown shortcuts** — `#` for a heading, `-` for a bullet, `1.` for a numbered list, `>` for a quote, ` ``` ` for code.
- **Select text** for the inline formatting menu; a drag handle moves blocks around.
- **Images** — paste or drag them straight into the page; they upload as attachments.
- **Link pages** — type `@` or `[[` and pick a page. The target page lists yours under **Linked references**.

## Verify it works

Refresh the page — your content is exactly where you left it, the sidebar shows the page in its space, and **Search** finds it by title or any phrase inside it.

## Good to know

- One title convention: an untitled page displays as "Untitled" until you name it.
- Every page keeps automatic version snapshots from the moment you start writing — see [versions and restore](/notes/organizing#version-history-and-restore).
- To bring in existing docs (Markdown files or a Notion export), use [Import](/notes/organizing#import-your-existing-docs).
