Emojis

To add an emoji to your message, simply add the code for the specific character you'd like to add, with a colon (:) on either side.

You can find the codes for all emojis on this page. Here are a few examples:

	Code	Emoji
	:smiley:
	:alert:
	:+1:
	:clapping:

Text Formatting

You can also use basic formatting within slack messages by using the following codes:

• Bold - Place an Asterisk (*) before and after the word you'd like to be bolded. For example, *Hello* would be displayed as Hello
• Italics - Place an underscore (_) before and after the word you'd like to be italicized. For example, _Hello_ would be displayed as Hello
