Bonus Drop #7 (2023-03-18): Back In The Highlight, Again

Syntax highlighting [on the web]; Shiki; microlight

It's somewhat hard to believe this is the seventh Bonus Drop since starting the extra subscription tier! Crafting a Drop is often the highlight of my day, so perhaps I should take inspiration from that and take a see what's going in on the world of syntax highlighting. I suspect all Drop readers — and, especially, the Bonus Drop subscribers — deal with syntax highlighting on the daily. Where does this magic come from? How does it work? What new syntax highlight tools, libraries, and paradigms are out there?
