Description

Need a efficient way of writing out states when using markdown. The DSS plugin handles this very well with only having to write the example code once. Ideally the method could be able to handle both pseudo states as well class based states.

Research direction
Investigate how the DSS plugin (referenced in the issue) handles pseudo states with minimal code duplication. Then examine the current markdown processing in SourceJS, likely in the 'sourcejs' core code, to see where state handling could be integrated. Look for existing markdown parsing utilities or custom renderers. Since there are no comments or linked PRs, the direction is to explore the codebase for markdown rendering modules and propose a solution similar to DSS's approach.
