+## Skipping Blocks
+
+Sometimes it can be useful to have code blocks marked with `js` even though they don't contain valid JavaScript syntax, such as commented JSON blobs that need `js` syntax highlighting. Standard `eslint-disable` comments only silence rule reporting, but ESLint still reports any syntax errors it finds. In cases where a code block should not even be parsed, insert a non-standard `<!-- eslint-skip -->` comment before the block, and this plugin will hide the following block from ESLint. Neither rule nor syntax errors will be reported.
+
+    There are comments in this JSON, so we use `js` syntax for better
+    highlighting. Skip the block to prevent warnings about invalid syntax.
+
+    <!-- eslint-skip -->
+
+    ```js
+    {
+        // This code block is hidden from ESLint.
+        "hello": "world"
+    }
+    ```
+
+    ```js
+    console.log("This code block is linted normally.");
+    ```
+
 ## Unsatisfiable Rules
 
 Since code blocks are not files themselves but embedded inside a Markdown document, some rules do not apply to Markdown code blocks, and messages from these rules are automatically suppressed:
