Describe the feature you'd like

Add code display option for LaTeX, which could allow code highlighting as illustrated here:

https://codemirror.net/mode/stex/index.html

I believe that the required mode files that need to be referenced in the bookstack source are available here:

https://github.com/codemirror/CodeMirror/tree/master/mode/stex

Describe the benefits this would bring to existing BookStack users

It would allow users to beautifuly present LaTeX source code

Can the goal of this request already be achieved via other means?

Not that I know of. I looked at earlier issues, and I can see that in the past users had to request for specific languages to be added.

Have you searched for an existing open/closed issue?

I have searched for existing issues and none cover my fundemental request

How long have you been using BookStack?

0 to 6 months

Additional context

No response
