Description

Target Application

Cisco WebEX

Problem Description

Using markdown with backticks does not change the style of text inside of the backticks. The ask is not for language-specific syntax highlighting but act more like GitHub where single backtick entries show up as code and triple backticks indicate code blocks.

Expected Outcome

Markdown text inside of single of block backticks show up as code style and triple backticks show up as

code blocks

Actual Outcome

The text shows up with the backticks surrounding it

Research direction

No implementation file or test is named. Start by locating the Adaptive Cards markdown rendering entry point and reproduce the Cisco WebEX example with single and triple backticks. Done means single backticks render inline code styling, triple backticks render code blocks, and the backticks are not shown around the rendered text.
