![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/speed-highlight/core/main/assets/screenshot.png)

- Languages definition are from **a few bytes** to **1kB**
- Themes are about **1kB**
- Language rules needed are automatically loaded

## Fast ⚡

Blazing fast highlighting using regex

## Simple setup 🚀

### Web

Style/theme (in the header of your html file):

```html

```

In the body of your html file:

```html

[code]

or
[inline code]
```

Highlight the code (in your javascript):

```js
import { highlightAll } from '/path/dist/index.js';
highlightAll();
```

Auto language detection

```js
import { highlightElement } from '../src/index.js';
import { detectLanguage } from '../src/detect.js';

elm.textContent = code;
highlightElement(elm, detectLanguage(code));
```

Load custom language

```js
import { loadLanguage } from '../src/index.js';

loadLanguage('language-name', customLanguage);
```

#### CDN

```html

```

```js
import ... from 'https://unpkg.com/@speed-highlight/core/dist/index.js';
import ... from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/speed-highlight/core/dist/index.js';
```

### Deno

Use the [deno module](https://deno.land/x/speed_highlight_js)

```js
import { setTheme, printHighlight } from 'https://x.nest.land/speed_highlight_js/dist/terminal.js';

await setTheme('[theme-name]');
printHighlight('console.log("hello")', 'js');
```

## Node

Use the [npm package](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@speed-highlight/core)

```bash
npm i @speed-highlight/core
```

```js
const { setTheme, printHighlight } = require('@speed-highlight/core/terminal');

setTheme('[theme-name]');
printHighlight('console.log("hello")', 'js');
```

## Migrating from prism

Speed-highlight JS is a lighter and faster version of prism that share a similar API

### Style

Remove the prism stylesheet in the head of your html file
Clone this repository or use a cdn to load our stylesheet

```diff

-
+

```

### Script

For the script part remove the prism.js script and replace it by a import and a call to `highlightAll`

```diff

-
+
+ import { highlightAll } from 'https://unpkg.com/@speed-highlight/core/dist/index.js';
+ highlightAll();
+

```

If you want to highlight only a specific element you can use the `highlightElement` function instead

### Code block

For the code blocks replace the `

` by only one `
`
And use `shj-lang-` prefix instead of `language-` for the class property

```diff
-

p { color: red }

+
p { color: red }

```

And for inline code block you just have to change the class property

```diff
-p { color: red }
+p { color: red }
```
