hi Aleksey, Welcome to Treehouse, great question too :)

There are 2 main ways.

If you're doing a code challenge on a course you can automatically attach the code you've attempted when you ask a question to a forum. This would have to be on the same page as the challenge page you're working on. You can click an option to attach the code to your post when you submit. So that's one option.

Secondly you can attach "customised" to any forum post you make by using the Markdown cheatsheet, a link to which is on any forum page.

Here it is: Markdown Cheatsheet

The main way to add code would be to use 3 backticks to open the codespace, type in the language you want to use and then 3 more backticks to close it.

like this 

<p>Some HTML Code</p>

Have a look at the markdown cheatsheet whenever you're unsure about to format text n the forums. :)
