About
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

``sphinx-github-style`` is a Sphinx extension that links your documentation to GitHub source code.
It also adds syntax highlighting for code blocks similar to GitHub's pretty lights dark theme.

...

GitHub Source Code Links
===============================

Using |.sphinx.ext.linkcode|_, a ``View on GitHub`` link is added to the documentation of every class, method, function, and property:

:alt: sphinx-github-style adds a "View on GitHub" link

They link to and highlight the corresponding code block in your GitHub repository:
