The README describes Chroma as converting source code and structured text into highlighted HTML, ANSI-colored text, and other output, with lexers, formatters, and styles modeled heavily on Pygments. The project published v0.1.0 in September 2017, v2.0.0 in May 2022, and continued a fast v2 release line through 2026, with v3 alpha releases introducing Go iterator changes and a new module path. ### Adoptionsgeschichte Chroma's adoption is partly library-driven: it has Go package documentation, a playground, and a CLI, while static-site and documentation tooling can embed it to avoid a Python/Pygments runtime. Homebrew packages the CLI and reports stable version 2.27.0. The supplied package-manager facts list Homebrew, Debian, Ubuntu, Nix, and Scoop packages, showing distribution beyond the Go module ecosystem. ### Wie es verwendet wird Library users select a lexer, formatter, and style, or use the `quick.Highlight` helper. CLI users can run `chroma` directly and inspect available lexers with `chroma --list`. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren Chroma is package-nerd interesting because it made Pygments-style highlighting available as a native Go dependency and standalone binary. That matters for self-contained Go programs, static-site generators, and container images that want syntax highlighting without a Python toolchain. ### Zeitleiste - 2017: Repository created and v0.1.0 release published. - 2022: v2.0.0 release published. - 2025: v2 line continues with frequent releases through v2.20.0. - 2026: v2.27.0 and v3.0.0-alpha releases published. ### Related projects - Pygments is the explicit design ancestor; the README says Chroma is based heavily on it and includes translators for Pygments lexers and styles. Related surfaces include Go package documentation, the Chroma playground, and the `pygments2chroma_xml.py` conversion script. ### Quellen - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger-Risiko:** grün / niedrig - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Andere Paketmanager-Einträge - Debian apt - chroma - 1.19-2: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: chroma from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Abstract puzzle game - graphical version | http://level7.org.uk/chroma/ - Debian apt - chroma-curses - 1.19-2: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: chroma-curses from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Abstract puzzle game - terminal version | http://level7.org.uk/chroma/ - Debian apt - chroma-data - 1.19-2: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: chroma-data from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Abstract puzzle game - data files | http://level7.org.uk/chroma/ - Nix - chroma: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/ch/chroma/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - Ubuntu apt - chroma - 1.19-1ubuntu1: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: chroma from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | Abstract puzzle game - graphical version | http://level7.org.uk/chroma/ - Ubuntu apt - chroma-curses - 1.19-1ubuntu1: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: chroma-curses from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | Abstract puzzle game - terminal version | http://level7.org.uk/chroma/ - Ubuntu apt - chroma-data - 1.19-1ubuntu1: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: chroma-data from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | Abstract puzzle game - data files | http://level7.org.uk/chroma/ - Scoop - main/chroma: normalized package name match | Scoop official bucket manifest trees: bucket/chroma.json from https://api.github.com/repos/ScoopInstaller/Main/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - winget - Ubisoft.Chroma: normalized package name match | Windows Package Manager source index: Ubisoft.Chroma from https://cdn.winget.microsoft.com/cache/source.msix ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
