Please provide example for combining raw string literals with interpolated string

Description

I keep forgetting how to combine raw string literal with interpolated strings which I use, but obviously not use enough apperantly, when testing and building json objects.
And my issue is the text here is just not clear enough for me to understand I both have to use multiple $ characters and multiple { and } so it would be very beneficial with an actual example in the documentation, something like 🙂

string jsonPayload = $$"""
{
    "firstName": {{firstname}},
    "lastName": "{{lastname}}"
}
""";

Raw string literals can also be combined with interpolated strings to embed the { and } characters in the output string. You use multiple $ characters in an interpolated raw string literal to embed { and } characters in the output string without escaping them.

This is a good addition.

However, as we add this, we should also link to the section in .NET fundamentals on System.Text.JSON and its serialization APIs. Those can link back here as well.

Readers should quickly find both options.

I just realized there is a bug in my example, there is missing " around the firstname variable 😌
But you can make different example in the documentation if you think more relevant. I would just think it would be cool with an example that show how you can break it down over several lines with raw string literal while combining it with the power of string interpolation🤗

string jsonPayload = $$"""
{
    "firstName": "{{firstname}}",
    "lastName": "{{lastname}}"
}
""";
