About
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

``sphinx-github-style`` is a Sphinx extension that links your documentation to GitHub source code.
It also adds syntax highlighting for code blocks similar to GitHub's pretty lights dark theme.

...


GitHub Source Code Links
===============================


Using |.sphinx.ext.linkcode|_,  a ``View on GitHub`` link is added to the documentation of every class, method, function, and property:

They link to and highlight the corresponding code block in your GitHub repository:

   * - 📝 Note
   * - These links can be |.add_linkcode_class+styled with CSS|_ and used with/instead
       of the links added by |.sphinx.ext.viewcode|_



Syntax Highlighting
====================

``sphinx-github-style`` also contains a ``Pygments`` style to highlight code blocks similar to GitHub:
