## Inline code

Code can be rendered inline by wrapping it in single back ticks.

<div class="code-example" markdown="1">
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, `<inline code snippet>` adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

## Heading with `<inline code snippet>` in it.
{: .no_toc }
</div>
```markdown
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, `<inline code snippet>` adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

## Heading with `<inline code snippet>` in it.
```

## Syntax highlighted code blocks

Use Jekyll's built-in syntax highlighting with Rouge for code blocks by using three backticks, followed by the language name:

<div class="code-example" markdown="1">
```js
// Javascript code with syntax highlighting.
var fun = function lang(l) {
  dateformat.i18n = require('./lang/' + l)
  return true;
}
```
</div>
{% highlight markdown %}
```js
// Javascript code with syntax highlighting.
var fun = function lang(l) {
  dateformat.i18n = require('./lang/' + l)
  return true;
}
```
{% endhighlight %}

## Code blocks with rendered examples

To demonstrate front end code, sometimes it's useful to show a rendered example of that code. After including the styles from your project that you'll need to show the rendering, you can use a `<div>` with the `code-example` class, followed by the code block syntax. If you want to render your output with Markdown instead of HTML, use the `markdown="1"` attribute to tell Jekyll that the code you are rendering will be in Markdown format... This is about to get meta...

<div class="code-example" markdown="1">

<div class="code-example" markdown="1">

[Link button](http://example.com/){: .btn }

</div>
```markdown
[Link button](http://example.com/){: .btn }
```

</div>
{% highlight markdown %}
<div class="code-example" markdown="1">

[Link button](http://example.com/){: .btn }

</div>
```markdown
[Link button](http://example.com/){: .btn }
```
{% endhighlight %}

## Mermaid diagram code blocks

[Mermaid](https://mermaid-js.github.io/mermaid/) allows you to add diagrams and visualizations using Markdown code blocks. You can turn on support for mermaid by adding `mermaid_enabled: true` to your \_config.yml.

The markdown for a simple flowchart example might look like the following:

{% highlight markdown %}
```mermaid
graph TD;
    A-->B;
    A-->C;
    B-->D;
    C-->D;
```
{% endhighlight %}
