Sorry, I can't say I understand what this means. 🤔

It means that when you wanna quote smth in description always use double quotes. For instance what if I wanna mention some string literal used in code example? I should write "some literal text here" and not with single quotes. Maybe I have to reword it.

Ahh, sorry! I meant more specifically: "Quote just strings."
I understood the goal of this was to specify the use of double-quotes, but don't understand what is meant by "Quote just strings."

I think I understand what you mean now. So like quoting an excerpt from documentation?

If that's not what you mean, could you share an example, sorry. ^-^'

Then I can respond to this properly.
