Language Mappings

This document contains a list of mappings for language identifiers for highlight.js, which is mostly used in Markdown parsers, and ace, which is applied by LiaScript. Since both projects do not contain all languages and the names of the language identifiers might vary, we provide a mapping.

All language identifiers and aliases marked as code get syntax highlighting within LiaScript code-blocks. All other identifiers, as well as languages that are not listed at all, are shown as plain text without any highlighting.

This mapping is applied by LiaScript at:

https://github.com/LiaScript/LiaScript/blob/development/src/typescript/webcomponents/editor-modes.ts

The Short List at the end contains all identifiers that are defined there (state of LiaScript 2.6.0), including additional file endings that are not part of highlight.js. Feel free to make comments/issues or to add other mappings.
