## Overview

Paragraphs are the default block for narrative text.

Use them for explanations, transitions between sections, introductions before lists or code, and any copy that should read as a continuous flow.

## Markdown Syntax

```markdown
This is the first paragraph with **bold text**, _emphasis_, a [link](/guide/getting-started/overview/), and `inline code`.

This is a second paragraph separated by a blank line.
```

## Notes

- Start a new paragraph with a blank line.
- Inline formatting such as emphasis, links, code, and math works inside normal paragraphs.
- Keep each paragraph focused on one idea when the page is long.
