How to add padding to Inline Code?

[tutosrive]

Hi! I tried styling some inline code, and while it looks somewhat decent, I'm wondering if there's a better way to achieve the same result?

There are two types of inline code in my content/text: one within a paragraph, and another immediately after a "ListaBlock" element. That's why the condition is there.

This is the example content I'm using:

# apt > Package manager for Debian-based distributions. > Intended as a user-friendly alternative to `apt-get` for interactive use. > More information: <https://manned.org/apt.8>. - Update the list of available packages and versions: `sudo apt update` - Search packages by name or description: `apt search {{package}}` - Search packages by name only (supports wildcards like `*`): `apt list {{package}}`

And so I did:

Markwon.builder(ctx).usePlugin(object : AbstractMarkwonPlugin() {
    override fun configureVisitor(builder: MarkwonVisitor.Builder) {
        super.configureVisitor(builder)
        builder.on(Code::class .java) {
            visitor, node - >
            val length: Int = visitor.length()
            val code: Node = node.parent
            val previousIsList: Boolean = code.previous is ListBlock
            val whiteSpace: String = " ".repeat(node.literal.length)
            val padding: String = " "

            if (previousIsList) {
                visitor.builder().append("$padding$whiteSpace$padding\n$padding")
                visitor.builder().append(node.literal)
                visitor.builder().append("$padding\n$padding$whiteSpace$padding\n")

            } else {
            visitor.builder().append(padding)
            visitor.builder().append(node.literal)
            visitor.builder().append(padding)

        }
        visitor.setSpansForNodeOptional (node, length)

      }


   }
})

Another way to make it cleaner?
