  The real magic is what happens once you generate the syntax trees; at that point, you can modify them with the existing plugins (or make you own, if you really want to).

• HTML5 - Text markup elements

  Pre is for a block of preformatted text, so spaces are preserved, and the font can be monospaced. Another element is code for programming codes. Notice that code doesn't offer code highlighting; for this, use JavaScript + CSS code, like Highlight.js. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

• Better code highlighting on the web: rehype-tree-sitter

  Another contestant in this realm is Bright[1]. It runs entirely on the server and doesn't increase bundle size as seen here[2]. Regarding parsing speed tree-sitter is without a doubt performant since it is written in Rust, but I don't have any problems "parsing on every keystroke" with a setup containing Marked[3], highlight.js[4] and a sanitizer.
