How do I embed syntax-highlighted code in a blog post?+
Export as HTML and paste the styled HTML into your post's HTML editor. The inline styles work in any HTML-capable platform (WordPress, Substack, Notion, etc.). No external CSS dependencies required.
Can I use syntax highlighting in Word or Google Docs?+
Export as RTF format to preserve syntax colouring when pasting into Microsoft Word. For Google Docs, export as HTML and use the browser's Paste as Rich Text option, or take a PNG screenshot of the highlighted code.
What themes are available?+
Dracula, One Dark, GitHub Light, GitHub Dark, Monokai, Nord, Solarized (light and dark), Tokyo Night, Gruvbox, and many more. Preview themes instantly by clicking the theme name.
Is there a file size limit?+
There's no hard limit for syntax highlighting - it's purely text processing. Very large files (10,000+ lines) may be slower to process, but most code snippets highlight instantly.
What programming languages does the syntax highlighter support?+
Over 100 languages including JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Rust, Go, Java, C, C++, C#, Ruby, PHP, Swift, Kotlin, SQL, HTML, CSS, SCSS, Bash, YAML, JSON, Markdown, Dockerfile, and many more. The language is detected automatically or can be set manually.
How do I copy code with syntax colours intact?+
Use the 'Copy as HTML' export to get styled HTML with inline colour styles that preserve highlighting when pasted into HTML-capable platforms like email clients, Notion, or Confluence. For plain text without colours, use 'Copy Plain Text'.
How do I embed syntax-highlighted code on a website?+

How do I switch between dark and light themes?+
