This template returns the first unnamed parameter in double braces. To be used to demonstrate template code without the need for clunky nowiki'ing. Further unnamed parameters (up to 8 more) can be used without worrying for pipes.
An alternative is to use {{some text}}.
Set code=on / code=true / etc. to switch the font used to the HTML <code>-style monospaced font.
To improve legibility, {{thin space}}s are inserted either side of any pipe characters (" | ") displayed by the template.
To ensure equals-signs are handled as text by the template, use {{=}} to produce them – e.g. {{braces|Templatename|p1{{=}}v1|p2{{=}}v2|...}}
