Here's an image link to the Markdown logo on Wikipedia: Use the same number of characters to open and close the code fence. Open and close the block with the same character. To create a fenced code block that spans multiple lines of code, set the text inside three or more backquotes ( ```) or tildes ( ~~~). The following languages are supported: apollo (AGC/AEA Assembly Language), basic, clj (Clojure) css, dart, erlang, hs (Haskell), kt (Kotlin), lisp, llvm, lua, matlab, ml, mumps, n (Nemerle), pascal, proto, scala, sql, tcl, tex, vb, vhdl, wiki, xq, and yaml. To highlight code in other languages, set the language in the info string (the line with the opening code fence). YouTrack detects and highlights code in C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, Python, Ruby, and SH automatically. Syntax highlighting is supported for a range of languages. Language-specific highlights make the code easier to read. Unlike indented code blocks, fenced code blocks have an info string that lets you specify which language is used for syntax highlighting.

It ends the code block and starts a new paragraph.

Start an indented code block following a paragraph with a blank line and at least four spaces of indentation:īlank lines between indented lines do not end the code block. The contents of the code block are literal text and are not parsed as Markdown.Īny non-blank line with fewer than four leading spaces ends the code block and starts a new paragraph.

One level of indentation (four spaces) is removed from each line of the code block. An indented code block cannot interrupt a paragraph, so you must insert at least one blank line between a paragraph the indented code block that follows. To format a code block in Markdown, indent every line of the block by at least four spaces. You can format blocks of text in a monospaced font to make it easier to identify and read as code. > When you start a new line with additional > characters,

> Character formatting is _also_ supported inside the **quote block**. > The second paragraph is grouped with the previous paragraph in the same quote block. This line is not formatted and does not belong to the quote block. Use quote blocks to emulate reply text.
