Add sample code
- I mentioned [Textual][] in [my second answer][ans] to your other related question. The [4.0 release][release]'s demonstration video of streaming Markdown does include syntax-highlighted code blocks. The code block even fixes previous highlighting as more context streams in.

- Here's [their example code][example] to produce that video (with trimmed raw markdown):
- ````py
- from textual.app import App, ComposeResult
- from textual.widgets import Markdown
- EXAMPLE_MARKDOWN = """
- ```python
- def loop_last(values: Iterable[T]) -> Iterable[Tuple[bool, T]]:
- \"\"\"Iterate and generate a tuple with a flag for last value.\"\"\"
- iter_values = iter(values)
- try:
- previous_value = next(iter_values)
- except StopIteration:
- return
- for value in iter_values:
- yield False, previous_value
- previous_value = value
- yield True, previous_value
- ```
- """
- class MarkdownExampleApp(App):
- def compose(self) -> ComposeResult:
- markdown = Markdown(EXAMPLE_MARKDOWN)
- markdown.code_indent_guides = False
- yield markdown
- if __name__ == "__main__":
- app = MarkdownExampleApp()
- app.run()
- ````
