Zulip supports the standard Markdown syntax for inline code spans and code blocks: | Sending the above message in Zulip will render like this: | You can also use ~~~ to start code blocks, or just indent the code 4 or more spaces. | A widget in the top right corner of code blocks allows you to easily copy the code to your clipboard. | Tagging a code block with a language enables syntax highlighting and (if configured) code playgrounds. Zulip supports syntax highlighting for hundreds of languages. | A code block can be tagged by typing the language name after the fence (```) that begins a code block, as shown here. Typeahead will help you enter the name for the language. The Short names values from the Pygments lexer documentation are the complete set of values that support syntax highlighting.
