There is a bug in the markdown parser that does not hyperlink links from within an inline code block.
Code:
`[DOM Standard](https://dom.spec.whatwg.org/)`

Hmmm never even considered this the expected behavior.
Hmmm, it seems it works if the code is put inside the hyperlink
edit: nevermind
Hmm agreed with Ben, I would think if a link is in code it's meant to show you the code and not the hyperlink.
This is the effect I was going for. The idea was that I would link a keyword to the documentation but put the keyword in an inline code block to have the monospace font.
In the ink it shows this code:
Which renders like this:
EventTarget
Which is different from what you wrote, right?
slightly, but because i realized the original way didn't properly compile to adding the
<code>part, which dev.to does not with with the backticks inside or outside the urlHah whoops I expected that to go differently. I now know what you're talking about.
Ahh that makes sense. @nektro I think on GitHub it does what you're talking about.
prism.js supports this :)
