not all who use code are programmers!

I can only agree. You do not need a computer science degree for this feature.

These days, everybody might see the need to quickly save code parts.

In addition, I think that also a younger audience such as high school students might be interested in that feature given some code exposure in class.

How does the "code block" feature work?

So far it is just a formatting thing, you click the "code block button" in the desktop version (looks like: { } ) or use CTRL + Shift + L.
You cannot set programming languages. It will just format the text differently.

I would like to see the option to set a language and get the color coding and formatting automatically for that language.
For instance, if I set it to be SQL, it would automatically highlight keywords like "SELECT" and capitalize them.
If I set it to a programming language, it would be nice to get automatic indentation on top.
