Advanced Code Highlighting Features

This page demonstrates how to use the advanced features of our code blocks.

Line Highlighting#

You can highlight specific lines in your code to draw attention to them. This is done using the highlight attribute:

example.go
package main
 
import string">"fmt" string">"comment">// This line is highlighted
 
func main() {
string">"comment">// These lines are highlighted
message := string">"Hello, highlighted code!"
fmt.Println(message)
}
 

Code Block Titles#

You can add a title to your code blocks using the title attribute:

example.go
package main
 
import string">"fmt"
 
func main() {
fmt.Println(string">"Hello from a titled code block!")
}
 

Hiding Line Numbers#

You can hide line numbers if you prefer a cleaner look using the showLineNumbers attribute:

example.go
package main
 
import string">"fmt"
 
func main() {
fmt.Println(string">"No line numbers here!")
}
 

Combining Features#

You can combine multiple features for rich code examples:

example.go
package main
 
import (
string">"fmt"
string">"time"
)
func calculateFibonacci(n int) int {
string">"comment">// Highlighted implementation
if n <= 1 {
return n
}
return calculateFibonacci(n-1) + calculateFibonacci(n-2)
}
 
func main() {
start := time.Now()
result := calculateFibonacci(10)
elapsed := time.Since(start)
fmt.Printf(string">"Fibonacci(10) = %d\n", result)
fmt.Printf(string">"Time taken: %s\n", elapsed)
}
 

Comparison with Other Languages#

Go syntax is clean and straightforward compared to other languages:

Go (Golang)#

example.go
package main
 
import string">"fmt"
 
type Person struct {
Name string
Age int
}
 
func main() {
p := Person{Name: string">"Alice", Age: 30}
fmt.Printf(string">"%s is %d years old\n", p.Name, p.Age)
}
 

JavaScript#

example.txt
class Person {
constructor(name, age) {
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
}
}
 
const person = new Person('Alice', 30);
console.log(`${person.name} is ${person.age} years old`);
 

Python#

example.txt
class Person:
def __init__(self, name, age):
self.name = name
self.age = age
 
person = Person('Alice', 30)
print(f"{person.name} is {person.age} years old")
 

By using these code block features, you can create more engaging and educational Go tutorials that highlight the most important parts of your code examples.
