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

For instance, I am using ABC-QWERTZ layout on my mac.

enter image description here

For me:

  • To enter into inline code block:

                      [Single backtick + space key] worked.
    

  • To come out from inline code block:

                      [Single backtick key]
    

Start writing after pressing key.


On U.S. Keyboard:

  • To enter into inline code block:

                      [Single backtick].
    

  • To come out from inline code block:

                      [Single backtick key]
    

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

For me none of the backtick solutions worked, but at least for code blocks (not inline code between two words)

ALT + CMD + 6

did the job.

For MAC Users:

+ + 6

If you type the code rather than highlighting existing code, and start with a backtick, you enter inline code mode. To escape, another backtick doesn't work for me - I have to use right arrow.

Selecting code and pressing backtick just deletes the code and displays a backtick. Pretty useless really...

It's a quite old question, but i found a way on French keyboard to it : You need to use the # button (and not the ` button), which is fact at the same place on an English keyboard : French keyboard
