This is a code syntax highlighter developed as part of a school project at ISTIA, an engineering school in Angers (France).
You can check out the demo here:
The principle is simple: it formats and colors your code, according to the language you select.
To go further, we created a few themes so you can visualize your code in different color styles.
The program is flexible: you can add a programming language by simply creating a js file and adapting the program script.js. You can take a look at the files lang-javascript.js to understand what to describe about the language.
This project uses mainly JavaScript with HTML and CSS. JQuery 1.11.0 has also been used to develop the project faster.
The main program is contained in script.js.
The supported languages are contained in the files lang-*****.js
The themes are the css files style-*****.css.
The other HTML and CSS files are here to show how to use the program and how to adapt it to your needs. Do not hesitate to look at the demo to understands what it does for the user. You'll find in tests.txt some examples of code your can insert in the demo page.
