Author here: This is an MIT-licensed syntax highlighter for markdown fenced code blocks. It focuses on three things:

1. Aesthetics. Focus solely on how your code looks.

2. Ease of coloring. 3-5 CSS variables are enough.

3. Minuscule: Almost 1000x smaller than Shiki or Prism

Is this a code highlighter I can use on my own jamstack blog?

Yes. You can integrate it into any Markdown engine. Instructions for Marked can be found here: https://nuejs.org/docs/concepts/syntax-highlighting.html#mar...
