Why does Sublime Text not highlight the code
Sublime Text users frustrated by lack of syntax highlighting? Here's why it happens & how to fix it.
Sublime Text Not Highlighting Code
Sublime Text is an incredibly powerful text editor that can help developers write code more efficiently. Unfortunately, it is not always perfect. One issue that users have reported is that Sublime Text is not highlighting code correctly. This can be very frustrating, as the lack of syntax highlighting can make it difficult to spot errors and understand the code.There are several potential causes for this issue. One is that Sublime Text may not be able to recognize the code language being used. For example, if you are writing JavaScript but have not specified that it is JavaScript, Sublime Text may not be able to identify the language and thus will not highlight the code correctly. To fix this, you can open the language menu at the bottom of the window and select the correct language.
Another potential cause is that the code you are writing is not properly formatted. Sublime Text works best when the code is written in a consistent and logical manner. If the code is not formatted correctly, it is possible that Sublime Text will not highlight it correctly. To fix this, you should look through the code and make sure that it is properly indented, properly spaced, and correctly structured.
Finally, it is possible that the syntax highlighting has been switched off. To check this, you can open the Preferences menu and select the Syntax Highlighting option. If this option is disabled, you can enable it and Sublime Text should start highlighting code correctly.
// sample JavaScript code
let x = 10;
let y = 20;
let z = x + y;
console.log(z);
