How this Source Code Viewer works

This syntax highlighting tool displays source code with automatic language detection and professional formatting. The viewer parses input code, identifies the programming language from syntax patterns, and applies appropriate color schemes for keywords, strings, comments, and operators.

Supported languages include HTML, CSS, JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Java, PHP, Ruby, SQL, JSON, XML, YAML, and Markdown. The automatic detection analyzes file patterns, keywords, and structural elements to determine the most likely language. Line number display and word wrap options improve readability.

Real-time search highlights matching text within code while maintaining syntax coloring. Copy and download functions export code with original formatting preserved. All processing runs client-side—paste proprietary source code confidently knowing it never leaves your browser.
