## What it is
A collection of pre-generated CSS files for all of Pygments' built-in syntax highlighting styles, so users don't have to run pygmentize themselves. It includes themes like monokai, friendly, and tango, with a makefile to regenerate them.

## Use cases
- add syntax highlighting styles to a static site without running pygmentize
- get a monokai CSS theme for code blocks
- style code snippets in a blog with pygments themes
- regenerate pygments CSS files with a custom top-level class
- find all pygments builtin style CSS files in one place

## When to choose
- you use Pygments for code highlighting and want ready-made CSS files
- you want to quickly theme code blocks on a website or documentation

## When to avoid
- you need a JavaScript-based highlighter like highlight.js or Prism
- you need custom styles not derived from Pygments built-ins
- you need actively updated themes for the latest Pygments versions

- function: css-framework, developer-tools
