## Adding code samples
You can add inline code snippets or code blocks. Code blocks support meta options for syntax highlighting, titles, line highlighting, icons, and more.
### Inline code
To denote a `word` or `phrase` as code, enclose it in backticks (\`).
```mdx
To denote a `word` or `phrase` as code, enclose it in backticks (`).
```
### Code blocks
Use [fenced code blocks](https://www.markdownguide.org/extended-syntax/#fenced-code-blocks) by enclosing code in three backticks. Code blocks are copyable, and if you have the assistant enabled, users can ask AI to explain the code.
Specify the programming language for syntax highlighting and to enable meta options. Add any meta options, like a title or icon, after the language.
```java HelloWorld.java lines icon="java"
class HelloWorld {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello, World!");
}
}
```
````mdx
```java HelloWorld.java lines icon="java"
class HelloWorld {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello, World!");
}
}
```
````
## Code block options
You can add meta options to your code blocks to customize their appearance.
<Note>
You must specify a programming language for a code block before adding any other meta options.
</Note>
### Option syntax
- **String and boolean options**: Wrap with `""`, `''`, or no quotes.
- **Expression options**: Wrap with `{}`, `""`, or `''`.
### Syntax highlighting
Enable syntax highlighting by specifying the programming language after the opening backticks of a code block.
We use [Shiki](https://shiki.style/) for syntax highlighting and support all available languages. See the full list of [languages](https://shiki.style/languages) in Shiki's documentation.
```java
class HelloWorld {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello, World!");
}
}
```
````mdx
```java
class HelloWorld {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello, World!");
}
}
```
````
### Title
Add a title to label your code example. Use `title="Your title"` or a string on a single line.
```javascript Code Block Example
const hello = "world";
```
````mdx
```javascript Code Block Example
const hello = "world";
```
````
### Icon
Add an icon to your code block using the `icon` property. See [Icons](/components/icons) for all available options.
```javascript icon="square-js"
const hello = "world";
```
````mdx
```javascript icon="square-js"
const hello = "world";
```
````
### Line Highlighting
Highlight specific lines in your code blocks using `highlight` with the line numbers or ranges you want to highlight.
```javascript Line Highlighting Example highlight= {1-2,5}
const greeting = "Hello, World!";
function sayHello() {
console.log(greeting);
}
sayHello();
```
````mdx
```javascript Line Highlighting Example highlight={1-2,5}
const greeting = "Hello, World!";
function sayHello() {
console.log(greeting);
}
sayHello();
```
````
### Line focusing
Focus on specific lines in your code blocks using `focus` with line numbers or ranges.
```javascript Line Focus Example focus= {2,4-5}
const greeting = "Hello, World!";
function sayHello() {
console.log(greeting);
}
sayHello();
```
````mdx
```javascript Line Focus Example focus={2,4-5}
const greeting = "Hello, World!";
function sayHello() {
console.log(greeting);
}
sayHello();
```
````
### Show line numbers
Display line numbers on the left side of your code block using `lines`.
```javascript Show Line Numbers Example lines
const greeting = "Hello, World!";
function sayHello() {
console.log(greeting);
}
sayHello();
```
````mdx
```javascript Show Line Numbers Example lines
const greeting = "Hello, World!";
function sayHello() {
console.log(greeting);
}
sayHello();
```
````
### Expandable
Allow users to expand and collapse long code blocks using `expandable`.
```python Expandable Example expandable
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
from typing import Dict, List, Optional
from dataclasses import dataclass
@dataclass
class Book:
title: str
author: str
isbn: str
checked_out: bool = False
due_date: Optional[datetime] = None
class Library:
def __init__(self):
self.books: Dict[str, Book] = {}
self.checkouts: Dict[str, List[str]] = {} # patron -> list of ISBNs
def add_book(self, book: Book) -> None:
if book.isbn in self.books:
raise ValueError(f"Book with ISBN {book.isbn} already exists")
self.books[book.isbn] = book
def checkout_book(self, isbn: str, patron: str, days: int = 14) -> None:
if patron not in self.checkouts:
self.checkouts[patron] = []
book = self.books.get(isbn)
if not book:
raise ValueError("Book not found")
if book.checked_out:
raise ValueError("Book is already checked out")
if len(self.checkouts[patron]) >= 3:
raise ValueError("Patron has reached checkout limit")
book.checked_out = True
book.due_date = datetime.now() + timedelta(days=days)
self.checkouts[patron].append(isbn)
def return_book(self, isbn: str) -> float:
book = self.books.get(isbn)
if not book or not book.checked_out:
raise ValueError("Book not found or not checked out")
late_fee = 0.0
if datetime.now() > book.due_date:
days_late = (datetime.now() - book.due_date).days
late_fee = days_late * 0.50
book.checked_out = False
book.due_date = None
# Remove from patron's checkouts
for patron, books in self.checkouts.items():
if isbn in books:
books.remove(isbn)
break
return late_fee
def search(self, query: str) -> List[Book]:
query = query.lower()
return [
book for book in self.books.values()
if query in book.title.lower() or query in book.author.lower()
]
def main():
library = Library()
# Add some books
books = [
Book("The Hobbit", "J.R.R. Tolkien", "978-0-261-10295-4"),
Book("1984", "George Orwell", "978-0-452-28423-4"),
]
for book in books:
library.add_book(book)
# Checkout and return example
library.checkout_book("978-0-261-10295-4", "patron123")
late_fee = library.return_book("978-0-261-10295-4")
print(f"Late fee: ${late_fee:.2f}")
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
```
````mdx
```python Expandable Example expandable
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
from typing import Dict, List, Optional
from dataclasses import dataclass
# ...
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
```
````
### Wrap
Enable text wrapping for long lines using `wrap`. This prevents horizontal scrolling and makes long lines easier to read.
```javascript Wrap Example wrap
const greeting = "Hello, World! I am a long line of text that will wrap to the next line.";
function sayHello() {
console.log(greeting);
}
sayHello();
```
````mdx
```javascript Wrap Example wrap
const greeting = "Hello, World! I am a long line of text that will wrap to the next line.";
function sayHello() {
console.log(greeting);
}
sayHello();
```
````
### Diff
Show a visual diff of added or removed lines in your code blocks. Added lines are highlighted in green and removed lines are highlighted in red.
To create diffs, add these special comments at the end of lines in your code block:
- `// [!code ++]`: Mark a line as added (green highlight).
- `// [!code --]`: Mark a line as removed (red highlight).
For multiple consecutive lines, specify the number of lines after a colon:
- `// [!code ++:3]`: Mark the current line plus the next two lines as added.
- `// [!code --:5]`: Mark the current line plus the next four lines as removed.
The comment syntax must match your programming language (for example, `//` for JavaScript or `#` for Python).
```js Diff Example icon="code" lines
const greeting = "Hello, World!"; // [!code ++]
function sayHello() {
console.log("Hello, World!"); // [!code --]
console.log(greeting); // [!code ++]
}
sayHello();
```
````text
```js Diff Example icon="code" lines
const greeting = "Hello, World!"; // [!code ++]
function sayHello() {
console.log("Hello, World!"); // [!code --]
console.log(greeting); // [!code ++]
}
sayHello();
```
