+# Working with Blocks
+
+Your object is made up of different types of blocks to organize your information. Anytype's block-based editor works very similarly to that of blogging sites or website builders.
+
+All block styles originate from the command menu, which you can access by either clicking on the orange `+` symbol on the left-hand side of your editor, or typing `/`. 
+
+From here, you'll see more than twenty different block-types you can add to your object.

+
+### Style your Blocks
+
+You can select one block or several at once, and batch edit to create different headings and text styles such as checkboxes, bullets, or numbers.

+
+### Drag & Drop to Format
+
+You can use the orange 'handle' to the left of each block to create parent/child blocks or new columns in your editor.

-# Create an Object

-### Find the plus sign
-
-On the bottom navigation panel you will see a white "+" button.
-
-This plus sign is the magic button to create a new object from anywhere in the app.
-
-From there you will see your editor canvas and a menu of types to choose from, depending on what you want to create. Typing directly in the canvas will create an object of your chosen default type. You can change your default type at any time by tapping on your Account Settings Menu > Preferences.

-# Linking Objects
-
-### Relations on the Graph
-
-In your documents you may have multiple references or connections which could be attached to other work in your library. The Graph is the visualizer for this. Objects connected to other objects, connected to humans, or tasks. 
-
-Learn more about [relations](../relations/ "mention") & The [graph.md](../graph.md "mention") here.

-
-### Use the Flow
-
-Another option to check which objects are linked together can be found in the tab just next to the Graph.&#x20;
-
-On the top, center of your screen you will see the option to toggle to **Flow** view. This will show you which object is linked before and after the current object you are viewing.

+This plus sign is the central place to create a new, unlinked object from anywhere in the app.

+
+### Congratulations - you've created your first object!
+
+From here, you'll see your blank editor canvas with a menu on top.&#x20;
+
+The menu allows you to select between all of the types in your library, and define the type of object you are creating. For more on types, see [this article](../anytype-library/types.md).
+
+Once you've selected a type, you can begin creating content for your object using the block-based editor.
