ColorCode (Portable) is a Portable Class Library fork of Bashir Souid's excellent ColorCode library for Syntax Highlighting.
The goal of this project is to bring ColorCode to new audiences using the Portable Class Library format. At the same time, we are taking the latest version of the tool and making it available on GitHub. If you are currently using the .NET Framework 3.5 compatible version then there is no reason to switch to using this library.
If however, you want to start using Color Code 1.0.2+ with any of the following platforms then you can consider switching to this portable class library:
- ASP.NET Core 1.0
- Windows 8/10 Desktop
- Windows Phone 8.1
- Windows Phone Silverlight 8
- Xamarin Android
- Xamarin IOs
The biggest single change in converting this library is the removal of a
dependency on the System.Drawing
namespace through the introduction of a
similar native .NET object used to represent the CSS colours defined in CSS
Color Module Level 4.
