For code block and inline code block on the medium editor, I read Casey Botticello and Medium help center. But these formatting options did not worked for me.

Casey Botticello mentioned in his guide:

Eventually, I realized that my current working keyboard layout is ABC-QWERTZ instead of standard U.S. English.

Conclusion: If you are using other than a Standard US English Keyboard then medium formatting options may vary.

For ABC-QWERTZ Keyboard Layout

1. Inline Code.
2. Code Block.

Inline Code

• To enter into inline code block:

[Single backtick(`) + space key]

• To leave inline code block:

[Single backtick key(`)]

When you want to add an inline code block in the middle of the sentence, add one space before pressing a single backtick.

Code Block

• To enter into code block:

[Type double backtick(``) + Press enter key]

Try for what works with your current layout if you are not using one of these layouts.
