Summary
A chrome browser extension which adds code syntax highlighting to Medium articles.
Forget the black-on-gray blobs of code in articles which don't embed gists or images of code!
- Adds code syntax highlighting to '
' blocks in Medium articles.
- Highlighting theme is selectable and can be changed on-the-fly (via extension popup upon icon-click) from a handful of popular themes. -- Theme preference links to Chrome account.
- Works on all Medium articles, regardless of domain (i.e. 'medium.com', 'medium.freecodecamp.org', 'hackingandslacking.com', etc.)
Note Due to Medium's innate formatting, code blocks are split line-by-line into '
' blocks, meaning the 'highlightjs' language syntax recognizer may sometimes have trouble, but for the most part it works acceptably well.
