    I've used a markdown to html converter to convert my blog posts into HTML with very nice and customizable code samples... in my case I used Go's Blackfriday library with bfchroma[1] doing syntax highlighting with Chroma[2]. To add your language to Chroma you have to provide a lexer, which in turn is written in Pygments[3] syntax.

    Not being able to re-use html templates was a major problem for me (Web components could solve this when they get rid of the need for JS to use them, which I think will soon happen), and I also needed easy source code highlighting as I mostly write about code. So I wrote a Go generator that did just what I needed and now write my blog posts mostly in markdown, with support for code highlighting thanks to Blackfriday and bfchroma... both of which are simple Go libraries which I "vendor" (copy the source into my own project, so to speak) so if they stop maintaining them, it doesn't affect me much or at all.
