--- tags: Blogpost --- # Building up our knowledge base The Alkemio platform is growing! With the expansion of our users, guidance becomes more and more important. That is why we have made the first step towards building our **knowledge base**! This knowledge base will overtime include a FAQ, how-to guides, tips and tricks for using the platform, relevant articles, etc. ### Frequently Asked Questions The good news is, we have put up our first version of the **Frequently Asked Questions** that you can access via [alkemio.foundation/faq/](https://www.alkemio.foundation/faq/) and the help icon on alkem.io. The FAQ currently includes several questions related to the use of our platform, Alkemio in general, and the foundation behind Alkemio. Please have a look and share your suggestions! ![](https://i.imgur.com/1ArmcIf.png) ### Tips and Tricks with Markdown With help from our partners, we learn about how Alkemio can be used on a daily basis. To give you an example of some tips and tricks for the platform, we will dive a bit deeper into the **Markdown** functionality. Markdown is an easy way to add **formatting elements** to text documents. On the Alkemio platform, Markdown fields are for example used for *Updates*, *Context* of your Hub/Challenge/Opportunity, or Aspect *descriptions*. As visualized below, it can be used in many ways. ![](https://i.imgur.com/Fo8qgXw.png) For example, you can insert *links* in your Hub Context to relevant Opportunities, important Aspects, or active Canvases. Also, *videos and images* can be embedded to make your text more visually appealing. ![](https://i.imgur.com/Fb8DiZ3.png) The possibilities are endless, and you can find them online via for example via the [Guides provided by Markdown](https://www.markdownguide.org/). Have a look and play around with it on our platform!
