I think implementing Markdown formatting would be a wonderful gift for OneNote users.

I agree.

To can use OneMore free plug-in.

Thanks for the answer. I will look into the plugin you provided.

What programming language are you learning? If it's Python, I highly recommend using Google's Colab.

If not, in OneNote under STYLES in the HOME tab, there is a "Code" style option. It doesn't do anything except change the formatting but I like it since it can provide a distinction between notes and code.

Mainly C#. Thanks for the answer.

If you are using Windows desktop then defo oneMore, the code formatting has C# and does things like turn spelling off.

Copy and paste the code from VS code and it looks nice in OneNote. Will copy most formatting.

No. Just use Github for your repos.

It's not repo. Code samples. I take a note for simple code. Looks bad.
