Code Syntax Highlighting

Neuron provides syntax highlighting through Prism, a JavaScript library that highlights code blocks in the web browser. To customize Prism’s theme, or to provide your own syntax highlighter, you can do so in head.html (see Custom JavaScript and CSS).

To activate syntax highlighting, you must specify the language in your fenced code blocks (see example here) or view source of the below.

Demo

Haskell:

module Prime where 

primes = filterPrime [2..]
  where 
    filterPrime (p:xs) =
      p : filterPrime [x | x <- xs, x `mod` p /= 0]

JSON:

{ "_comment" : "This is JSON"
, "name" : "srid"
, "loc" : "Quebec"
}

Nix:

buildPythonPackage rec {
  pname = "hello";
  version = "1.0";
  src = fetchPypi {
    inherit pname version;
    sha256 = "01ba..0";
  };
}

Markdown:

This is `markdown`, the *format* used by **Neuron**

# Heading

- Link to [neuron](https://neuron.zettel.page)
- [[Wiki Link]] is not official Markdown syntax

Matlab:

% This is Matlab code
data = T(:,{'Year','Month','DayofMonth','UniqueCarrier'});
data.Date = datetime(data.Year,data.Month,data.DayofMonth);
data.UniqueCarrier = categorical(data.UniqueCarrier);

This one has no language identifier specified:

Just plain text.

No particular syntax.
