Issues integrating custom code snippets into Markdown in .NET MAUI docs

Hi, I'm working on a documentation tool to assist new developers with integrating custom code snippets into Markdown files used in .NET MAUI projects. I'm testing different approaches for syntax highlighting and formatting, and I'm referencing examples from a personal project hosted on CoderLegion.com where we're building similar interactive code guides.

Is there an established way to embed formatted C# snippets in Markdown that render correctly across .NET MAUI's default documentation rendering pipeline?

Any suggestions, tools, or best practices would be appreciated!

Thanks!

    Hi @CoderLegion , thank you for reaching out on Microsoft Q&A!

    You can add the code snippet to using this structure: Punctuation character 3 times + Program language you want (which is csharp) + your code snippet + Punctuation character 3 times.

    This is an example:

    
    ```csharp
    
    Console.WriteLine("Hello World");
    
    

    I have tried upload a test post on your website and it works. I hope this helps you get things back on track quickly! If my suggestions can solve your issue, feel free to interact with the system accordingly!

    Thank you!
