<pre>
<code class="language-{tag}">
where {tag} could be:
NOTE because highlightjs-glimmer overrides the same aliases as highlightjs' handlebars grammar, to use the handlebars grammar align with the glimmer grammar, you'll need to use the full name in class

setup
The convenience method for configuring everything related to
glimmer highlighting. This wraps registerLanguage and registerInjections.
For most use cases, this should be the only method you need.
registerLanguage
Convenience method for registering the glimmer syntax with highlight.js under the name "glimmer"
registerInjections
Configures injections in supported languages where it's common to use glimmer syntax.
glimmer
The highlight.js grammar function. This can be used to register the glimmer grammar under a name other than "glimmer".
<script type="text/javascript" src="/cdn/path/to/highlight.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/cdn/path/to/highlightjs-glimmer/glimmer.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">hljs.highlightAll();</script>
At this time, highlight.js does not ship ES Modules to CDNs
<script type="text/javascript" src="/cdn/path/to/highlight.min.js"></script>
<script type="module">
import { glimmer } from '/cdn/path/to/highlightjs-glimmer/glimmer.esm.js';
hljs.registerLanguage('glimmer', glimmer);
hljs.highlightAll();
</script>
requireconst hljs = require('highlight.js');
const { setup } = require('highlightjs-glimmer');
setup(hljs);
hljs.highlightAll();
Only Node 14 is supported
importimport hljs from 'highlight.js';
