Daaang! On the one hand, as someone developing a code-example custom element[0] that includes highlighting, this is kind of a "so close, but not quite" situation where I really wish this was something I could use for that, but it's probably too heavy to ship around for something so "simple" (as far as users' default expectation; not implying that highlighting text is simple).

But then, on the other hand, I had given up on a scratch code editor for a game development project I'm working on, and just loosely wrapped up the monaco editor which I'm guessing is going to be pretty bare when I actually get around to trying to code with it, in browser (I'm aware that it is robust, but from what I gather, a lot of its features come from third-party dev as a way to keep the core functionality pure). Given that I want to be able to script in C# (aside from just js/ts), I was sure I was going to have to figure something complicated out.

But, honestly, I think this solves all of my most concerning issues! What a sweet little library!
