Syntax highlighting?

[FreedomBen]

Dude, freaking amazing work. I just tried this out and it may revolutionize how I develop/test my apps. Really awesome.

Any plans to add syntax highlighting to the output, much like iEX does? That would be killer.

I can't do it right now but would send a PR for it later if somebody doesn't beat me to it. Thanks for this amazing tool and for making it so easy to drop into my existing Phoenix app so I can use it to test my code!

I'm leaving some notes here for either myself in the future or someone else who decides to do it:

highlight.js looks like it should be pretty easy to drop in and it's used by stack exchange among others. The Elixir support looks really crappy though: https://highlightjs.org/usage/

Github uses Linguist, which seems worth looking at too: https://github.com/github/linguist

Great suggestion, and thanks for the links to possible tools. I'll need to do some investigation of the various options to figure out how to proceed.

A quick look at PrismJS looks promising.
