An example is here:
* An implementation of {@code goog.events.Listenable} with full W3C
* EventTarget-like support (capture/bubble mechanism,
https://developer.pubref.org/static/apidoc/global/closure/goog/events/EventTarget.html
I can guess what it means but where can I find its exact definition? I checked all the Google Closure Annotation docs but couldn't find. Thanks :)
Per my new understanding; Since JSDocs supports markdown. {@code FooBar} is therefore deprecated in favor of back-ticks `FooBar`
.
You can see the output of the docs you've asked about on the Closure API's documentation page for goog.events.EventTarget.
When the JSDocs are rendered the @code tag will cause the code with in brackets to be rendered with as a <code></code>
element.

There's also the much better documentation from the JavaDocs... docs:
{@code text}
Equivalent to {@literal}
.
Displays text in code font without interpreting the text as HTML markup or nested javadoc tags. This enables you to use regular angle brackets (< and >) instead of the HTML entities (< and >) in doc comments, such as in parameter types (), inequalities (3 < 4), or arrows (<-). For example, the doc comment text:
{@code A<B>C}
displays in the generated HTML page unchanged, as:
A<B>C
The noteworthy point is that the is not interpreted as bold and is in code font. If you want the same functionality without the code font, use {@literal}.
