There are many open source projects available that do this sort of thing. Many are built into blog tools

Shiki, highlight.js, Chroma to name a few libraries

Makes a lot of sense, should've made more research.

Appreciate the feedback a lot!

I'm sure it is still a good learning experience. I cannot imagine the pain you felt doing the html by hand!

I learned a lot by working on a universal formatting setup.

Hof looks real cool

thanks, it was originally just code gen to solve one of my problems, but quickly expanded when I started getting user feedback and/or embraced CUE
