Code snippet feature

[jodator]

📝 Provide a description of the new feature

NOTE: CKEditor 5 already offers code blocks (see https://ckeditor.com/docs/ckeditor5/latest/features/code-blocks.html) which is a simpler version of this feature. Code snippets, on the other hand, are meant to be richer code blocks, a bit like an embedded IDE inside CKEditor 5.

• The proper code editing experience.
• Embedded code editor and syntax highlighting.
• Most likely, will only support comments and track changes on the entire code snippet.
• Important: it seems totally feasible to integrate it with real-time collaboration editing if we use an code editor like Monaco.

We'll be happy to hear your feedback on this feature to know how to shape it.

It's been a year since this issue was created, is there any current progress on it that I can help contribute to? Syntax highlighting at the very least, with highlight,js or alternatives is amongst my top priorities right now.

Monaco integration would be amazing 👍🏻

Currently, syntax highlighting is a feature that can maximize the user experience

What are the downsides to Monaco integration?

Does this feature have any specific schedule？

There is strong interest in this from the Drupal side too: https://www.drupal.org/project/codesnippet/issues/3269387#comment-14490254

FWIW I implemented syntax highlighting for Trilium (which uses CKEditor5) with a simple Trilium widget, see https://github.com/antoniotejada/Trilium-SyntaxHighlightWidget

I successfully configured this plug-in CKEditor5-CodeBlock-With-Syntax-Highlight in ckeditor5. It is great in edit mode, but it does not display correctly in preview mode.

May I ask what is the current progress of the code highlighting function? Or is there any other plugin solution?
