  • If you want to keep things simple and mark them up semantically as computer code, you should use <code>. Wrap it inside <pre> to ensure there’s no wrapping and line breaks, spacing, etc are preserved, eg. 

    
<pre> 
   <code>
         <h1>Hello World</h1>
   </code>
</pre>

    You may then style the code block to your hearts desire with the selector pre code { }

    If you want advanced stuff like language-aware syntax highlighting, line numbering, 1-click to copy an entire code block, etc… then you’re going to need a plugin, and there are a whole lot of them out there: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/search/syntax+highlighter/

    Good luck!
