Introduction

What does it do?

In technical articles it is sometimes necessary to embed code snippets into the text of a page. To improve the readability of the snippets, the syntax highlighting of code is appreciated - as in modern IDEs.

The extension provides a new content element to achieve this goal. You can choose between several themes.

Release Management

This extension uses semantic versioning which basically means for you, that

  • Bugfix updates (e.g. 1.0.0 => 1.0.1) just includes small bug fixes or security relevant stuff without breaking changes.

  • Minor updates (e.g. 1.0.0 => 1.1.0) includes new features and smaller tasks without breaking changes.

  • Major updates (e.g. 1.0.0 => 2.0.0) breaking changes which can be refactorings, features or bug fixes.
