Tightknit Supports Slack Rich Text: New Features and Custom Emojis!
We're ending this week with a bang! 💥 The team has been hard at work introducing a new compiler that can handle Slack rich-text content.
What does that mean, you ask? Well you're actually looking at it right now! Slack has a whole system of rich text blocks you can use to format beautiful messages, and Tightknit can now display those messages on the companion site! 
Did you catch that one? It might've slipped by you. Here let me make it a little more obvious... 
Yes, you're seeing that right! The Tightknit companion site now supports
CUSTOM EMOJIS
We're super excited to bring such a powerful brand feature to the companion site. We ❤️ emojis. But that's not all! This update also adds support for:
titles
color-branded links
embedded images
embedded videos
buttons with urls
💡 For those savvy with Slack blocks, Tightknit currently does not support: interactive elements (except for button), action blocks (except for button), images blocks with slack_file, unfurl previews (aka attachments)While we're on the topic of rich text, we've turned the Event description input into a rich-text editor. No boring boring plain text — make those event blurbs pop! (Okay I didn't have to put a button here, but it's cool right!?)
