Add CSS to <head> in head_custom.html (I'm using the github theme here), and JavaScript to foot_custom.html. highlight.min.js supports common languages here: https://highlightjs.org/download/ As an example, I added r.min.js to support R. To add support for any other languages, find their filenames on https://cdnjs.com/libraries/highlight.js.

hljs.configure({languages: []}); means highlight.js should not automatically detect languages in <pre>. I set this option because I found the automatic detection was often more annoying than useful, e.g. your R code chunk output could be syntax highlighted, which really should not be.

I want to add some examples of using different styles. Here are some styles hosted in cdn. And here are some demos.

I just replaced the line in layout/partials/head_custom.html to a different css and it worked.
