html - Centered one-line python code in markdown

Question

I am trying to center a code in markdown (used in JupyterLab). Here is the code I use

<div style="text-align:center"><span style="font-size:1em;"> 
`code template`
</span> </div>

But this code keeps showing ` at the beginning and end of this simple snippet. Any suggestion on solving this problem is appreciated

Answer 1

Markdown generally is not processed in HTML block-level elements like <div>s:

Note that Markdown formatting syntax is not processed within block-level HTML tags. E.g., you can’t use Markdown-style *emphasis* inside an HTML block.

But you can still use HTML:

<div style="text-align:center"><span style="font-size:1em;"> 
    <code>code template</code>
</span> </div>
