# Creating Docs In this guide, we'll introduce you to **docs**, one of the core tools that help you store and organize information in your library. {% embed url="" %} Watch the learning center video about Docs. {% endembed %} ### What Are Docs? Docs in Scrintal are structured containers built from multiple blocks. They allow you to: * Consolidate related thoughts * Build coherent content from smaller pieces * Link and organize ideas for research, projects, and writing *** ### Creating Docs You can create docs in several ways: #### Option 1: From Toolbar * Go to the toolbar at the bottom of your screen * Click "**Create New Doc**" * Place the new doc on your board #### Option 2: Keyboard Shortcut * Press "**D**" on your keyboard * Place the new doc on your board #### Option 3: Combine Blocks If you've already written ideas in separate blocks: * Select stacked blocks from the "**Click and Drag**" tool * Click "**Create Doc**" button * These blocks will be merged into one doc ### Editing and Structuring Inside a doc, you can: * Add new blocks * Rearrange content * Format text with styling tools Use docs as your space to dive deeper, write longer form content, or finalize structured information. ### Linking and Navigation Use Scrintal's linking tools to: * Connect one doc to another * Reference related information * Jump between concepts without losing context ### Pro Tips * Use docs to finalize the content you began organizing with blocks * Reuse docs by dragging them into new boards * Link docs to create knowledge graphs Docs are powerful tools for taking your ideas from brainstorms to polished outputs. Start using them to keep your work organized and impactful! --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
