 To create a ZK Stack project, you must first create an ecosystem:
 
-`zk_inception ecosystem create`
+```bash
+zk_inception ecosystem create
+```
 
 All subsequent commands should be executed from within the ecosystem folder.
 
 If the ecosystem has never been deployed before, initialization is required:
 
-`zk_inception ecosystem init`
+```bash
+zk_inception ecosystem init
+```
 
 This command also initializes the first ZK chain. Note that the very first chain becomes the default one, but you can
 override it with another by using the `--chain <name>` flag.
 
 To change the default ZK chain, use:
 
-`zk_inception ecosystem change-default-chain`
+```bash
+zk_inception ecosystem change-default-chain
+```
 
 IMPORTANT: It is not yet possible to use an existing ecosystem and register a chain to it. this feature will be added in
 the future.

 Upon ecosystem creation, the first ZK chain is automatically generated. However, you can create additional chains and
 switch between them:
 
-`zk_inception chain create`
+```bash
+zk_inception chain create

 Once created, contracts for the ZK chain must be deployed:
 
-`zk_inception chain init`
+```bash
+zk_inception chain init

 Initialization utilizes the ecosystem's governance to register it in the BridgeHub.
 
 If contracts were deployed by a third party (e.g., MatterLabs), you may need to run the genesis process locally:
 
-`zk_inception chain genesis`
+```bash
+zk_inception chain genesis

 This ensures proper initialization of the server.
