You can create Task Lists to keep track of todos and other checklists. Click the playlist_add_check Add a task list button in the Markdown editor toolbar to add a Task List item. You can also enter the syntax into the editor directly.
Once a Task List item has been rendered, you can check/uncheck it by clicking directly on the checkbox. We'll automatically update the underyling source code.
Task Lists are enabled for snippet files, description and comments. Only users with edit permissions can click on checkboxes. (i.e. Disabled for team viewers.)
