Inline Code

Overview

Inline code formatting with monospace styling and hidden syntax markers.

Implementation

• Syntax: `code`
• Markers (backticks) are hidden, text is displayed in monospace
• Supports nested formatting (e.g., **bold code**)

Acceptance Criteria

Basic Inline Code

Feature: Inline code formatting

  Scenario: Basic inline code
    When I type `code`
    Then the backticks are hidden
    And the text is displayed in monospace

  Scenario: Code with spaces
    When I type `code with spaces`
    Then the backticks are hidden
    And the text is displayed in monospace

Nested Formatting

Feature: Inline code with nested formatting

  Scenario: Code in bold
    When I type **bold `code` text**
    Then the code markers are preserved
    And the code is displayed in monospace
    And the bold formatting is applied

  Scenario: Code takes precedence
    When I type `**bold** code`
    Then the code markers are preserved
    And formatting inside code is not applied

Edge Cases

Feature: Inline code edge cases

  Scenario: Multiple code spans
    When I type `code1` and `code2`
    Then both code spans are formatted correctly

  Scenario: Code with backticks
    When I type `` `code` ``
    Then the outer backticks are hidden
    And the inner backticks are preserved

Reveal Raw Markdown

Feature: Reveal inline code

  Scenario: Reveal on select
    Given `code` is in my file
    When I select the code
    Then the raw markdown is shown
    When I deselect
    Then the backticks are hidden again

Notes

• Core Markdown feature
• Code takes precedence over other formatting
• Monospace styling for readability

Examples

• `inline code` → inline code (monospace, markers hidden)
• `**bold** code` → **bold** code (code takes precedence)
