# Slash commands

Slash commands is a core plugin that allows you to perform commands in the editor by typing a forward slash (/) at the beginning of a line or after any blank space.

To run a command using Slash commands:

1. In the editor, type a forward slash (/).
2. Enter the name of the command you want to run to search the list of available commands.
3. Navigate to the command using the arrow keys.
4. Press Enter.

To exit the Slash command search without invoking a command, press Esc or the Space key.
