I want to tangle a codeblock inside a codeblock and include #+end\_src
inside. This will not work in org-mode since it will be recognized as
the end of the code block.

    #+begin_src :tangle snippets/org-mode/PythonBlock
    # -*- mode: snippet -*-
    # name: PythonBlock
    # key: <p
    # --
    #+begin_src python :tangle ${2:NameHere}.py :results output
    # NOTE, this file is generated from the org file:
    # `(file-name-nondirectory (buffer-file-name))`
    # Only modify the org file and not this Python file.

    $0
    #+end_sr${1:c}
    #+end_src

The hack above works but  I'm wondering if it there are other
solutions.

(note: while typing my question I thought about the ${1:c} option and
kinda answered my own question. Perhaps there are other solutions? )

See [Literal Examples](https://orgmode.org/manual/Literal-
Examples.html#Literal-Examples).

>You must insert a comma right before lines starting with either `*`,
`,*`, `#+` or `,#+`.

Start the empty block, then press `C-c '` to edit,   edit whatever you
need, then press the same to end editing and everything will be
automatically escaped, including the inner block. As simple as that.
