Building a syntax highlighting extension for VS Code
Luckily, there is a project that has fitted my needs perfectly: vscode-grammar-test. It’s a command line tool that builds on the VS Code regex engine and grammar file parser and allows to run unit tests directly against a given grammar file.

Dark mode with Shiki and Code Hike
Shiki does this because the underlying library vscode-textmate or vscode-oniguruma returns black if the value is not a valid color. This explains why Code Hike uses blackish color codes instead of variables. But what if we write a variable directly into the theme instead of the color code.

How to get font colors but not syntax highlighting for a file in custom language?
Thank you for the response! I feared that I might have to create a vscode extension for the language. I'm assuming I can use this json file to build textmate grammar for Stks ? Do you suggest any specific resources for learning textmate grammar and regex? I'm especially unfamiliar with regex. Thanks again

Show HN: Ray.so – Create beautiful images of your code
There are lots of different approaches you could take. For sourcecodeshots, I run it through VSCode's tokenizer (https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-textmate) and then use node-canvas to generate the image one line at a time.
It's a very imperative process and fairly slow on a cpu, but the nice thing is that I can run the same code in the browser to speed up development. The Rust project, https://github.com/Aloxaf/silicon, mentioned in another part of the comments is probably faster, but I didn't find it when I was searching for a solution.

Building a syntax highlighting extension for VS Code
I said to myself: it couldn’t be that hard to fix, could it? Well… When I looked at the repository, I soon found out that it wouldn’t be that easy: the grammar syntax was in some hardly comprehensible XML format (PList) and looked like being a bare copy from somewhere else, there were no comments or helpful tips anywhere and, above all, the whole thing was basically unmaintained: last changes from several years ago, no issues resolved, no PRs merged. I’m not judging here (of course I made several ”zombie projects“ myself, too), I just hope it’s clear now that I had to go down the rabbit hole and rebuild the extension from the bottom up.
What are some alternatives?
tree-sitter-vue - Vue grammar for tree-sitter
silicon - Create beautiful image of your source code.
carbonate - Github Action to format fenced code blocks in github issues as images. Originally created as part of DEV Github Actions hackathon: https://dev.to/callmekatootie/jazz-up-the-code-blocks-in-github-issues-52e6
usfm-grammar - An elegant USFM parser.
carbon - :black_heart: Create and share beautiful images of your source code
vscode-oniguruma - Oniguruma Bindings for VS Code
shiki - A beautiful yet powerful syntax highlighter
lighter - The syntax highlighter used by Code Hike.
