How can I embed a snippet code at my Linkedin article?

Question

I want to embed a snippet code at my LinkedIn article, like that:

That image is from Gitlab snippets (https://gitlab.com/snippets/1841785). Is there some way to render its content in the LinkedIn articles? I saw that post at my LinkedIn feed and I got curious how to do this.

I noticed that Gitlab provides two way to get the snippet: a embed or share content. How should I use?

Thank you.

It's pretty sad they still haven't gotten it right, in 2024. – Boult

While this link may answer the question, it is better to include the essential parts of the answer here and provide the link for reference. Link-only answers can become invalid if the linked page changes. – Jazminejazz

Answer 2

LinkedIn rendering for code snippet is very basic (white text on a black background, no keywords or strings highlight). My favorite way to share short snippet of code on LinkedIn is by creating an image (like the one you included here) and link the image to the original code on GitHub.

Thanks @FrancoSF! Unfortunately, tools like Linkedin and Medium don't have good support for that... I'm getting by like you: generating images and putting them along the text. – Register
