The official collection of syntax highlighting packages shipped with Sublime Text and Sublime Merge, written in the sublime-syntax format. It serves as the canonical source for language definitions and syntax tests, which contributors can fork and symlink locally to modify and test.
Use cases
- fix or improve syntax highlighting for a language in Sublime Text
- write sublime-syntax definitions for a new programming language
- run syntax tests for Sublime Text packages
- customize default language grammars in Sublime Text
- contribute syntax highlighting updates shipped with Sublime Merge
When to choose
- you want to edit or extend syntax definitions bundled with Sublime Text or Sublime Merge
- you are developing a sublime-syntax grammar and want reference implementations and syntax tests
When to avoid
- you use a different editor like VS Code or Vim
- you need a Sublime Text plugin using the Python API rather than syntax definitions
- you run a Sublime Text build older than 4095, which is incompatible with this format
