Could you at least document your implementation of markdown for Teams?

I use Webex Teams and markdown code blocks regularly. There's no documentation so I have to guess which languages support syntax highlighting.


It's been years now. Can you do this please? I feel like you guys added this feature and completely abandoned it.

    We support 185 languages in markdown on Mac currently, after confirming with the team. Find the full library here for Mac: https://highlightjs.org/static/demo/

    On Windows, this is the full list https://kate-editor.org/syntax/ , there are 341 here

    We will work with documentation team on getting this information added right away

    You state that syntax highlighting is supported for 341 languages on Windows, which is just simply not true... have you actually tested these? Take "Ruby" or "YAML" for example, syntax highlighting does not work in Webex, but these are definitely included in the supposedly "supported" languages as per your link.
