Execute normal markdown codeblocks?

[d-chambers]

Hi,

Is there a way to tell quarto to execute normal md codeblocks?

```python
print('hey')
'''

Rather than having to surround the environment with curly brackets like this?

```{python}
print('hey')
'''

(I had to use the bottom backticks as quotation marks to render properly)

I want to do this so that I can use a quarto file as a project readme and have github do the proper code formatting.

Thanks!

You can use quarto to generate github markdown:

test.qmd

---
format: gfm
---

```{python}
print('Hey')
```

will produce test.md:

``` python
print('Hey')
```

    Hey

which is what I think you're looking for.

Ya that will work, thanks!
