Feature Description

It would be great if Gitea could support Rescript syntax highlighting.
For example Github already supports it via the ```res tag or the source code view. See example below.

module Button = {
  @react.component
  let make = (~count: int) => {
    let times = switch count {
    | 1 => "once"
    | 2 => "twice"
    | n => Belt.Int.toString(n) ++ " times"
    }
    let msg = "Clicked " ++ times

    <button> {msg->React.string} </button>
  }
}

Screenshots

The screenshot below shows how in Gitea 1.15.5 the Rescript code is displayed as a plain text.

Hi @joseluisq

Gitea's syntax highlighting is done by the chroma library, I think it's better if a request is made to support rescript's syntax highlighting on their issue tracker.

It was my guess too. Yeah a proper request on Chroma project is also necessary.
