About the product

What does Syntax Highlighter do?

Syntax Highlighter turns source code into readable examples for documentation, technical articles and lessons. It supports 242 languages and formats, live light and dark themes, line emphasis, diff markers, line numbers and folding. Users can copy or download HTML using inline styles, separate CSS or Tailwind CSS, or export a PNG image. Highlighting and export run in the browser, and the homepage tool works without an account. It colors source code rather than executing, formatting or linting it. Submitted on behalf of the product owner.
