You can display diff code by using the regular markdown syntax:
```diff
+diff --git a/sample.js b/sample.js
+index 0000001..0ddf2ba
+--- a/sample.js
++++ b/sample.js
+@@ -1 +1 @@
+-console.log("Hello World!")
++console.log("Hello from Diff2Html!")
+```
+
Which generates:
diff --git a/sample.js b/sample.js
+index 0000001..0ddf2ba
+--- a/sample.js
++++ b/sample.js
+@@ -1 +1 @@
+-console.log("Hello World!")
++console.log("Hello from Diff2Html!")
+
But this is difficult to read, specially if you have a large diff. You can use diff2html to display a more readable version of the diff. For this, just use diff2html
instead of diff
for the code block language:
```diff2html
+diff --git a/sample.js b/sample.js
+index 0000001..0ddf2ba
+--- a/sample.js
++++ b/sample.js
+@@ -1 +1 @@
+-console.log("Hello World!")
++console.log("Hello from Diff2Html!")
+```
+
If we use a longer example, for example this commit from diff2html, it will generate the following output:
