Highlight code and syntax with Prettify
Docs does not include any server-side support for syntax highlighting, but it's easy to include on a per-site basis. We recommend using a JavaScript module called Prettify.

Open your Docs site settings and scroll to the bottom of the page. In the Custom code section, paste the following code into the Insert <head> Code textarea:
<script src="https://cdn.rawgit.com/google/code-prettify/master/loader/run_prettify.js"></script>
We include the default Prettify stylesheet, but you can alternatively use your own CSS or one of their themes.

Add
class="prettyprint"to any<pre>or<code>tags to enable syntax highlighting. You can also enable language hints and line numbering using classes that are covered in the Prettify Getting Started documentation.
