We wrote up a blog post about all the hard work and hard tech that went into making Highlights.
- Highlights uses actual language ASTs to highlight rather than regex
- It is often hundreds of times faster than Shiki in language-to-language comparisons while also using much less memory
- It supports over 70 languages
- It's a drop-in replacement for Shiki when your environment supports wasm and simd

Today we're launching an exciting new project: Highlights
Highlights is a syntax highlighter that outputs HTML. It improves on both speed and correctness compared to the existing industry standard libraries.
It's an optional drop-in replacement in Diffs, and it's ready to use today. In fact, it's already powering diffshub․com!
Check it out at diffs.com/highlights
OR `pnpm install @pierre/highlights`
Every @getskydive agent is backed by a private git repo hosted with Code Storage.
We’re excited to work with @anything on bringing cloud agent personas to the workforce.
(and also the agents are v cute)

Did you know that you can use the file icon set from trees.software in your editor? @mdo put together a visually cohesive and theme-able set for you. Single color or duotone.

In the newest version of diffs.com/edit
- Edit mode is now stable
- Tab completions are live
It's called "Diffs," but you can use it just to show or edit single code files as well.
