Prior to the change backticks were used in an attempt to create a code block. The problem is that inside block level HTML tags Markdown is not supported. I have replaced the backticks with a combination of HTML tags in order to approximately simulate the appearance of a code block. The docs suggest possible use of span tags in place of the surrounding div tags as a solution to getting the Markdown to render. I tried this but no success. This change improves the readers understanding of the information, because the reader doesn't have to make sense of raw markdown.
Jekyll
Jekyll is a simple, blog-aware, static site generator perfect for personal, project, or organization sites. Think of it like a file-based CMS, without all the complexity. Jekyll takes your content, renders Markdown and Liquid templates, and spits out a complete, static website ready to be served by Apache, Nginx or another web server. Jekyll is the engine behind GitHub Pages, which you can use to host sites right from your GitHub repositories.
Philosophy
Jekyll does what you tell it to do — no more, no less. It doesn't try to outsmart users by making bold assumptions, nor does it burden them with needless complexity and configuration. Put simply, Jekyll gets out of your way and allows you to concentrate on what truly matters: your content.
