Description

Does a list of supported languages for syntax highlighting exist?

It turns out to be a bit trial and error when guessing on what should/can be written after ```

I am particular interested in Bicep, PowerShell, JSON, Azure CLI.

Operations you have already tried

I have tried out assuming that the Rouge highlighter is the one used, but it seems not to be.
I have used a lot of time so far trying to find out how the syntax highlighting is done, but I think I am running around in circles missing something obvious.

Anything else?

Why not?

syntax_highlighter: rouge

The most intuitive way is to go to https://rouge.jneen.net/ and search for supported syntax.

Alternatively, if you have rouge-ruby installed locally, you can run the following command in terminal to print a list of all syntaxes:

$ rougify list

Thanks a lot for the fast response - as I mentioned it was something obvious I missed - the local install of rouge was missing.
