# Text Node Shorthand
Throughout this specification, you may see the following notation:
{
"type": "Paragraph",
"children": ["Hello, World!"]
}
Note that this notation is shorthand for the following, and has been used to aid in reader clarity.
{
"type": "Paragraph",
"children": [
{ "type": "Text", "content": "Hello, World!" }
]
}
This shorthand is used purely for demonstrative purposes, and should not be used in any real KDF files.
