How to highlight a code block on dev.to

I found that this code was generally more pleasing to the eyes

const name = 'Ifeoluwa'
function Welcome() {
console.log(`Welcome ${name} you made it here!`)
}

To this below

const name = 'Ifeoluwa'
function Welcome() {
console.log(`Welcome ${name} you made it here!`)
}

What's the secret? Nothing too complicated. To achieve this, you only need to specify the language the code is written in.

Normally when you open a code block it goes something like

Add the name like this

And it will render this

const msg = 'You did it!';
