How to create a nested list in Hashnode
Creating nested list when writing articles in Hashnode
Nested lists
When writing in Hashnode, we have the beautiful quick-menu to add Codeblocks, Headers, Quotes, and lists. But adding a nested list is not so obvious on how to write. Like this:
- 1 level
- 2 levels
- 3 levels
- 2 levels
- 3 levels
- 4 levels
- 3 levels
- 2 levels
For clarification, when I write "dash", I refer to this symbol: -
Here is how we create nested lists in Hashnode:
- Level 1 : Start a new line with 0 spaces, then 1 dash, then 1 space.
- Level 2: Start a new line with 2 spaces, then 1 dash, then 1 space.
- Level 3: Start a new line with 4 spaces, then 1 dash, then 1 space.
- Level 4: Start a new line with 6 spaces, then 1 dash, then 1 space.
Basically, add 2 extra spaces before the dash to go 1 level deeper into the nested list.
