Styling options
Themes include Dark Modern, Monokai, Dracula, and One Light. Backgrounds range from bright gradients to solid black. The filename appears in the window bar, which helps viewers know what they are looking at.
Keywords, strings, numbers, and comments are colored with one general set of rules, so common languages such as JavaScript, Python, Go, and SQL look right without choosing a language.
Getting a good-looking image
Keep snippets short, ideally under 20 lines, and trim long lines so text stays readable when the image is scaled down in a feed. The image is exported at twice the on-screen size, so it stays crisp on high-resolution screens.
For accessibility, include the code as text in your post or doc as well; screen readers cannot read code from an image.
