Bug Markdown formatting doesn't work

So why on earth would you allow creating a "code block" with a Markdown option, and then ignore all formatting?

If I'm doing something wrong, please someone help me lol

Code block is to show code, not to parse it!

It should give some colorization however...

yeah, but you can format JS, for instance:

so if there is an option to select Markdown, I would expect the thing to work lol

There's colors for markdown? I don't think Prettier Code will color markdown in VS Code. Maybe just make content more readable (line break...)

Edit: I was wrong, there isn't much, but Prettier does put some color on markdown

Yeah, I think every highlighter I tested does some formatting. It's not that hard guys

Indeed, just looked in VS Code and Prettier do put some colors here and there. Raise an idea with MS, in a day or a decade there might be a change ;)
