The three-backticks stuff is specific to Markdown, although it's usually handled by a library such as Pygments, which you can certainly use on its own as well.
YOu can also use the <pre><code>...</code></pre> tag to preformat stuff although that won't do syntax highlighting and you'll need to convert < to <. (Technically you only need <pre> but that's a visual tag while <code> is the semantic tag to say what the text represents.)
Yes, it is the need to convert the angle brackets plus also keeping the indentation/readability intact that is kind of odd to do still "manually" in 2020. (Am sure there are online converters or we could write one ourelves, but still ... hoping for a more efficient way)

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
Thanks a lot for the hint - is there an equivalent for this "trick" in HTML, please?
