This module integrates the highlight.js library with
Backdrop, providing syntax highlighting for code blocks.
Code blocks can* be formatted like so:
<pre><code class="[LANG]"> // Code here... </code></pre>
* The <pre> wrapper and the class attribute are optional.
The class can also be prefixed with language- or lang-. If you don't specify
a language in the class attribute, highlight.js will try to detect the language
automatically. See How to use highlight.js for
more details.
