Using highlighter
We can use the highglighter
function in order to render and highlight code. By default the function will highlight the
syntax of R code.
highlighter("some_variable <- 3")
If we want we can specify the language using the language
parameter.
highlighter("const someVariable = 3;", language = "js")
Using highlight_file
We can pass the path to a local file using the highlight_file
function
highlight_file("<path_to_your_file>", language = "r")
