Remark plug-in, wrapping a span around a string
The actual splitting of the node into those 3 new nodes will depend on the type of AST node (see docs). If you look at other remark plugins, you might find examples or utils for doing that more easily.

Contentlayer with next/image
contentlayer uses remark to parse the markdown in an mdast. We can now use remark plugins to modify the mdast. Then rehype comes into play and converts the mdast into a hast. rehype plugins can now modify the hast. Finally the hast is converted into react components.

Converting and customizing Markdown files to HTML with Unified, remark & rehype
remark parses and process the Markdown text, and converts it into an abstract syntax tree (AST). This tree is composed of unist nodes, which follow the Markdown Abstract Syntax Tree (mdast) structure.

How to create a custom lint rule for Markdown and MDX using remark and ESLint
Because we will be inspecting a mdast, which is a markdown abstract syntax tree built upon unist, we can take advantage of the many existing unist utilities to inspect our tree's nodes.

My OpenSource Blog that You Can Use Right Now

Build a simple code editor
Luckily, implementing syntax highlighting in our simple code editor is easy with the use of external libraries. There are several JavaScript libraries available, such as Prism and Highlight.js. For our editor, we'll use Prism since it's easy to use and supports a wide range of programming languages.

GDScript (Godot) syntax highlighting in Obsidian?
Hey all, I've been taking notes as I learn Godot engine, using the Editor Syntax Highlight plugin, but it doesn't show highlighting in edit mode unlike how it does for other languages. I read on a forum somewhere that this plugin/Obsidian uses [PrismJS](https://github.com/PrismJS/prism/issues) for syntax highlighting, which has gdscript on its list of supported languages, yet it doesn't work. Any help would be appreciated thank you!

Sveltekit prismjs
I have a problem with using PrismJS with SvelteKit. I can get the basic languages to work like javascript, but I can't load additional ones using the loadLanguages function, because of the Vite (or at least I think that is the problem). Is there any way to load additional languages highlighting? I am also using tailwind css and flowbite-svelte.
