Another lazy question.

I use to write my posts.

Code is written as:

print("hello")

That's automatically converted to:

<pre><code class="language-python">…

I use HighlightJS to do syntax highlighting. But that pulls in lots of JS which I'd rather avoid.

Is there a decent plugin for doing sever-side rendering of code highlighting which doesn't require blocks / Gutenberg?

I know I can try a few out, but I'd like to hear people's personal experiences.

Does anyone have a good set of stylesheets?

I'm looking for some CSS which I can drop in as a replacement for the default styles.

@Edent
most popular option seems to be https://github.com/scrivo/highlight.php it's a PHP port of HighlightJS but I cant actually recommend it as I'ver never used it. I've always just used the JS options too.

@faffyman
Interesting, thanks. But I don't think that has WordPress plugin.

    @krinkle sadly not. I just gave it a go.
    Thanks for the info though.
    I think I've found something which does work.

    @Edent I prefer something js side so the html generated it is always updated and not filled in the post content that you maybe need to update after a year as example

    That may work for you. But I'd rather have the hard work done on my server and cached than waste my readers' time & energy.
