Syntax Highlighting

Hyvor Blogs has a powerful syntax highlighter with the following features:

Line numbering
Line highlighting
Diff (+ and -)
Line focusing

Most importantly, syntax highlighting is done at the time of rendering posts in our back-end. Therefore, it does not require any additional Javascript or CSS. To change syntax highlighting settings, go to Console → Settings → Post Content.

h=1-4,7

Highlights line 1 to 4, and then 7

f=1

Highlights the 20th line in red (for Diff remove)

renumber=4:21

Number of the 4th line will be changed to 21. The next line will have 22

Tips

Under the hood, Hyvor Blogs use Shiki for syntax highlighting. Therefore, we can support and VSCode-supported language or theme. If you want to add any, contact us.
Colors for syntax comes from our side, but styles like padding, margins, space between lines, and font sizes comes from the theme of your blog.
