-4. Generate report
+2. Generate report
 
 If you opted to install Allure CLI, you can generate a report using the command `allure generate`. The web representation of the report will be under `allure-report` directory:
-```
+```shell
 $ allure generate my-allure-123
 $ ls allure-report/
 app.js  data  export  favicon.ico  history  index.html  plugins  styles.css  widgets
 ```
 
 To inspect the report in a browser, run
-```
+```shell
 $ allure serve my-allure-123
 ```
 
 If you prefer to run allure from Docker, you can use the following command:
-```
-mkdir -p $PWD/allure-reports
-docker run -p 5050:5050 -e CHECK_RESULTS_EVERY_SECONDS=30 -e KEEP_HISTORY=1 \
-  -v $PWD/my-allure-123:/app/allure-results \
