Hi @alexanderadam, thanks for reaching out! It looks like we currently don't have a mapping between the file extension for haml and the syntax highlighting mode. Would you like to contribute support for that mapping? We have some documentation in https://github.com/desktop/desktop/blob/development/docs/technical/syntax-highlighting.md which should let you get started and https://github.com/desktop/desktop/blob/development/app/src/highlighter/index.ts#L43 contains all the currently defined modes which should give you a good idea of what needs to be done to support haml.

Hi @niik,

thank you for the fast response! 🙌

Would you like to contribute support for that mapping?

Something like this? I'm not sure I did it right. 🙈
I got the MIME type from CodeMirror documentation.
