Edit the list

Keep one task per item. Nested tasks can be represented by indenting their Markdown beneath a parent item. Switch to Source when checking the nesting or completion markers.

A checkbox records a value in the document; checking it does not run a product action. This is GitHub Flavored Markdown syntax, rather than an MDX component. See the Visual Editor demo for editing a task list alongside a documentation component.
