How to style a JSON block in Github Wiki?

Is there a way to nicely format/style JSON code in Github Wiki (i.e Markdown preferred)?

Something like this with few colors (or bold) and correct indentation:

Solution

  • Some color-syntaxing enrichment can be applied with the following blockcode syntax

    ```json
Here goes your json object definition
```

    Note: This won't prettify the json representation. To do so, one can previously rely on an external service such as jsbeautifier.org and paste the prettified result in the wiki.
