{highlightjs-org}[Highlight.js] is a popular client-side syntax highlighter that supports a broad range of {highlightjs-lang}[languages].
To use highlight.js, simply add the following attribute entry to the header of your AsciiDoc file:
[source]
----
:source-highlighter: highlightjs
----
By default, Asciidoctor will link to the highlight.js library and stylesheet hosted on https://cdnjs.com/libraries/highlight.js[cdnjs].
The version of the highlight.js library hosted on cdnjs only includes the basic language bundle.
To enable support for a wider range of languages (or to use a different version), follow these steps:
. Create your custom bundle on the {highlightjs-lang}[download page].
. Download and unpack the zip into a folder called [.path]_highlight_ adjacent to your AsciiDoc file (or in the output directory, if different)
. Rename [.path]_highlight/highlight.pack.js_ to [.path]_highlight/highlight.min.js_
. Rename [.path]_highlight/styles/github.css_ to [.path]_highlight/styles/github.min.css_
** Replace `github` with the name of the `highlightjs-theme` you are using, if different.
. Add the attribute entry `:highlightjsdir: highlight` to the header of your AsciiDoc file.
** Alternatively, you can pass the `-a highlightjsdir=highlight` flag when invoking the Asciidoctor CLI.
The output file will use your personal copy of the highlight.js library and stylesheet instead of the one hosted on cdnjs.
