Use Markdown to share inline code 

Markdown with inline code lets you highlight specific code snippets in a paragraph. This makes it easier to find and understand the code in the paragraph. 

To add an inline block of code (monospace), start and end the text with a backtick (`) key. This is located next to the 1 on your keyboard, followed by a space. You can also use one of the following alternate keys to start an inline code block:

• Shift+`+Space

• Shift+Alt+´

• The keyboard manager, Ukelele.

After selecting one of these keys, type your code and then press the same key again to end the code block.

Use Markdown to share a block of code

To add a multi-line block of code, preface your text with ``` and then paste it into your compose box. You'll get a live preview of your code, and you can undo any formatting by hitting Ctrl+Z. To learn more, read Use code blocks in Microsoft Teams.
