Syntax Highlighting Demo
A sample post for checking fenced code block rendering.

syntax-highlighting
This sample post exists to verify that Markdown code fences are rendered with server-side syntax highlighting.
The Rust block below uses lifetimes, pattern matching, and Result propagation.
use thiserror::Error;
#[derive(Debug, Clone, PartialEq)]
pub struct BlogSlug(String);
#[derive(Debug, Error, PartialEq)]
pub enum SlugError {
#[error("slug cannot be empty")]
Empty,
#[error("slug contains invalid characters")]
InvalidCharacters,
}
impl BlogSlug {
pub fn parse(value: &str) -> Result<Self, SlugError> {
let trimmed = value.trim();
if trimmed.is_empty() {
return Err(SlugError::Empty);
}
let valid = trimmed
.bytes()
.all(|byte| byte.is_ascii_lowercase() || byte.is_ascii_digit() || byte == b'-');
if !valid {
return Err(SlugError::InvalidCharacters);
}
Ok(Self(trimmed.to_owned()))
}
pub fn as_str(&self) -> &str {
&self.0
}
}
Here is a small TypeScript example for contrast.
type SocialPostDraft = {
headline: string;
firstParagraph: string;
canonicalUrl: string;
};
export function formatSocialPost(post: SocialPostDraft): string {
return `${post.headline}
${post.firstParagraph}
Read full: ${post.canonicalUrl}`;
}
And a shell example.
