  • cm-editor-syntax-highlight-obsidian

    A plugin for [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md) which allows syntax highlighting for code blocks in the editor.

  • Alternatively, you can use the cm-editor-syntax-highlight-obsidian plugin which allows syntax highlighting for code blocks in the editor using CodeMirror which also supports GNUMake syntax highlighting.

  • PrismJS

    Lightweight, robust, elegant syntax highlighting.

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

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • linguist

    Language Savant. If your repository's language is being reported incorrectly, send us a pull request!

  • Another option is to use Linguist which is what GitHub uses (I use linguist via .gitattributes files for all of my code projects). It is community driven and supports essentially every language possible: see languages.yml.

  • dev

    Development repository for the CodeMirror editor project

  • Alternatively, you can use the cm-editor-syntax-highlight-obsidian plugin which allows syntax highlighting for code blocks in the editor using CodeMirror which also supports GNUMake syntax highlighting.
