Dark mode for your code.

By default, the popular Dracula Theme + Highlight.js make for beautifully dark code
highlighting on the front-end of your WordPress-powered website. However, you can
completely customize the look of code highlighting (under _Appearance > Customize
> Code Styles_) if you like, even changing the overall design to, 🧛 *_hiss_*, a
light mode design.

Simply activate this plugin and any code found within **<pre><code>…</code></pre
>** tags on the front-end of your site will automatically be highlighted according
to the detected language.
