Inline code and code blocks

Inline code

Use paired backticks for a command, filename or syntax, such as `npm run build`. If the content contains a backtick, use a longer delimiter, for example two backticks around one. Asterisks and underscores inside code remain literal.

Fenced code

Use at least three backticks or tildes. Close with the same character and at least the opening length. A language label helps readers identify the code. It neither executes the code nor guarantees highlighting.

```python
print("hello")
```

To demonstrate triple backticks in a tutorial, wrap the example in a four-backtick fence. Leave a blank line before continuing the body. An unclosed fence can consume the rest of a document.

Indented code and current support

Four leading spaces can also create a code block; lists have additional indentation requirements. When copying commands, inspect smart quotes, prompt characters and placeholder parameters. Understand a command before running it.

Yeli displays fenced code and language information but does not promise highlighting for every language. mermaid and math labels do not enable diagram or math engines. See extensions.

Try putting # This is not a heading inside code and verify that it does not enter the outline. Use local Markdown editing to change only its code content, save and reopen.
