Quote

Last updated May 2026
Basic Block
All plans

A block quote with a vertical bar on the left. Used for pull quotes, long citations, or any content that should be visually set apart from the surrounding text. Add with /quote or /blockquote.

Markdown shortcuts

Typing >> at the start of an empty block and pressing Spaceor Enter converts the block into a Quote (block quote). The markdown prefix is removed when the block is converted.

Style

The quote renders as a horizontal flex row: a thin rounded vertical bar on the left (color adapts to dark/light mode) and a Tiptap editor on the right. Text is large (1.125rem) and italic by default.

The best way to predict the future is to invent it.

Inline formatting

Quotes support the full inline formatting set — bold, italic, links, text color, and highlight. The italic look, however, comes from a fixed style on the quote block itself, not from an inline formatting mark — toggling italic off on selected text has no visual effect, since the block styling overrides it either way.

Left bar color
Adapts automatically — rgba(255,255,255,0.20) on dark backgrounds, #d1d5db on light ones.
Text color
Applied via the block-level color picker or inline toolbar.
Font size
1.125rem by default. Can be overridden via the block typography settings.

Publishing

Renders with the same layout on the published page — vertical bar on the left, italic text on the right. The bar color is computed from the page background color at render time.
