Markdown formatting ​

Arcweave's rich text content supports limited Markdown syntax:

  • Italic: Wrap text in *single asterisks* or _single underscores_ and it will automatically transform to italic text.
  • Bold: Wrap text in **double asterisks** or __double underscores__ and it will transform to bold text.
