how to answer questions in the community?

This is probably a dumb question, but I see everyone posting answers in the community and they give code examples with a black background that is specifically for writing code. I can't figure out how to get that background for my posted answers, and I can't properly post code examples without it.

Hi Tate,

The Treehouse Community Forum uses Markdown for formatting and code snippets. There are a couple older CommunityThreads on this:

  1. Posting Code to the Forum
  2. How-to-guide ...

If you're using Workspaces on Treehouse, you can also take a sanpshot of your workspace to share with others.

After all that, there is also a very informative and excellent Markdown Basics Course you can take here on Treehouse.

Hope all this helps! :) :dizzy:
