| While this approach is valid, it is also a very low level and rather error-prone way to interact with Geth. Most developers prefer to use convenience libraries that abstract away some of the more tedious and awkward tasks such as converting values from hexadecimal strings into numbers, or converting between denominations of ether (Wei, Gwei, etc). One such library is [Web3.js](https://web3js.readthedocs.io/en/v1.7.3/). This is a collection of Javascript libraries for interacting with an Ethereum node at a higher level than sending raw JSON objects to the node. The purpose of Geth's Javascript console is to provide a built-in environment to use a subset of the Web3.js libraries to interact with a Geth node. | ||

This is the only way I found to add an eye-catching note in jekyll. I can look to see if there are alternative ways of doing it but don't think

afaik the only pure markdown options available are backticks, bold/italic text or quote blocks. Only the quote block is really viable in my opinion but none are really sufficiently eye-catching.
