Example HTML Code for Embedding a Tweet

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Here's an example tweet to embed.</p>&mdash; Twitter User (@TwitterUser) <a href="https://twitter.com/TwitterUser/status/123456789">October 25, 2024</a>
</blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

This HTML allows Twitter to render the tweet as it appears on the platform, enhancing engagement and appearance.
