There was a problem hiding this comment.
Couple non-blocking comments, but this looks great to me @pettinarip, thanks! This paired with #18195 will be a nice polish to all the codeblocks.
Address PR review feedback (#18194) - Remove COPY_WIDGET_LANGS allowlist so the copy button shows for every non-homepage codeblock instead of only js/json/python/solidity. - Move Codeblock.tsx into index.tsx and drop the index.ts re-exporter.
# Conflicts: # src/components/Codeblock/index.tsx

prism-react-rendererwithshikifor code block syntax highlighting. The newCodeblockis an async server component; the client wrapper only owns the collapse + copy controls.Why
prism-react-renderer(and JS-only alternatives likesugar-high) mis-tokenise everything outside the JS family on the tutorials and docs pages — exactly where highlighting matters most. Shiki ships 692 grammars and handles all of them."use client"wrapper viadangerouslySetInnerHTML. Grammars/themes never cross the RSC boundary, so the client bundle does not grow.--shiki-light/--shiki-darkCSS variables; the dark theme is selected purely via the.darkancestor.Changes
src/components/Codeblock/(serverCodeblock.tsx+ clientCodeblockClient.tsx) replaces the old single-filesrc/components/Codeblock.tsx.src/lib/shiki.ts— singleton highlighter with a fixed lang/theme allowlist (one-light + one-dark-pro) to avoid lazy-import latency on cold starts.src/styles/codeblock.css— token styles + dark-mode variable swap, imported once fromglobal.css.Test plan
