Code Syntax Highlight

By default, Ghost displays code cards without syntax highlighting. The Aspect theme offers a solution to automatically add syntax highlighting to all code cards.

The Aspect theme includes an API to integrate Shiki for syntax highlighting in all code cards. Insert the following code snippet into your site:

<script>
window.pvs?.initCodeHighlight?.();
</script>

Advanced Usage

This code snippet adds a code syntax highlighting to all code blocks. If you want to add additional features such as line numbers and language badge, use the following code snippet:

<script>
window.pvs?.initCodeHighlight?.({
    clipboardButton: true,
    lineNumbers: true,
    languageBadge: true,
});
</script>

Supported Languages

The Aspect theme utilizes the Shiki library, which supports a wide range of languages. See the Shiki Supported Languages for the complete list.

To select the language for your code block, insert the language ID into the Language setting in your code card:
