+# What is code folding?
+Code folding is when you can take several lines of code and collapse them.
+Folding is super useful for situations where code takes up space when you
+do not need to see it for your current editing. Common cases are things
+like function definitions, for loops, or large tables.
+
+# How does Vim handle folding?
+## Folding Modes
+
+Vim has several folding modes:
+1. `manual` - you pick where folds go
+2. `indent` - fold by indented blocks
+3. `syntax` - fold by semantic markers in code
+4. `expr`   - fold by user expression
+5. `marker` - fold based on [[Markers]] that are placed by a user
+6. `diff`   - used to fold unchanged text when using [[Views]] 
+
+For the most part, I'm just going to use manual mode. I know enough of the
+motions that I can get around easier, and plus since I write in a variety 
+of languages things like indent or syntax might not be sufficient or 
+expressive enough.
+
+## Folding Commands
+To create a fold, use `zf{motion}`, where, you guessed it, you can use
+just about any of the [[Motions]] you like.
+
+Folds can also be created using Visual mode. Select the text, then `zf`.
