Essential Markdown Tips for Developers Sharing Code

Developers thrive on signal density. Markdown + FragBin offers just enough structure-maximize it with these tips.

1. Declare Languages

# Good
print("Hello")

Generic fenced blocks reduce syntax clarity.

2. Collapse Repetition

Large repetitive logs? Provide the first instance + pattern summary.

3. Use Callouts (Plain Text Style)

NOTE: This flag must be enabled before restart.
WARNING: Do not run in production first.

4. Encode Config Examples

Mark them clearly to avoid accidental copy into production:

# demo only
replicas: 1

5. Inline Variables

Use placeholders like <PROJECT_ID> to avoid leaking real identifiers.

6. Provide Context First

First 2–3 lines = purpose + scope-improves SEO and reader triage.

7. Avoid Over Nesting

Depth > 3 rarely adds clarity-flatten structure when possible.

8. Checklist Template

- [ ] Verified environment
- [ ] Dependencies installed
- [ ] Tests green

Consistent markdown discipline makes FragBin pastes reusable, searchable, and trustworthy.
