Advanced tools
The ace-builds npm package is a standalone code editor written in JavaScript. It is designed to be embedded easily in web pages and provides a rich set of features for code editing, including syntax highlighting, code folding, and autocompletion.
Syntax Highlighting
This feature allows you to set syntax highlighting for different programming languages. In this example, the editor is set to highlight JavaScript syntax.

const editor = ace.edit('editor');
editor.setOptions({
enableBasicAutocompletion: true,
enableSnippets: true,
enableLiveAutocompletion: true
});
