🙈 Highlight Monkey

Hugo comes with a built-in {{< highlight >}} shortcode that works… ok on a Micro.blog site. But not without its quirks. This plug-in aims to monkey patch in better code-highlighting support for microbloggers.

As of now, this plug-in is not even alpha. It's a proof of concept.

Do you get value from Highlight Monkey? I'd love your support!

Try it out!
