PrismJS VS shiki

For Code highlighting, I am using Prism.js. First I am loading the styles file inside the _app.tsx file and inside the CodeBlock component, I am loading the styling that gives us beautiful syntax highlights.

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.

I'm trying to implement the new feature in a similar way, but not exactly the same, so my plan is going to modify unwrapMdxCodeBlocks function and apply Prism to highlight the code blocks.

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!

I tend to use https://prismjs.com/ on my blog. On the website you click which languages you want to support (e.g. Python, JavaScript, ...) and get a custom set of CSS and JS files which you load into your template. Code than has to be wrapped in

Or this one for csharp which is more complex https://github.com/PrismJS/prism/blob/master/components/prism-csharp.js

I believe Obsidian utilizes PrismJS as its default syntax highlighter for code blocks.

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.

Prismjs was replaced by Shiki and rehype-pretty-code.

Shiki (https://shiki.style) might be good enough for your usecase, use the latest beta versions as it's the new fresh esm rewrite.

Finally the vanguard had arrived. A markdown renderer named Shiki.

Coincidentally, I recently looked into the slow startup time for shiki and it was mostly from parsing JSONC, not WASM: https://github.com/shikijs/shiki/issues/439.

Warning: This article refers to versions of Code Hike before 0.8.0. Since version 0.8.0, Code Hike uses lighter instead of Shiki. The approach presented in this article uses shiki's color replacement method, which no longer works with lighter.

The outcome I was (mostly) hoping for has been done by Shiki library! I take no credit for the idea btw, I am just glad that someone else (Pine) took it on!
