Description
Language
CoNLL-U is an annotation framework for syntactically annotated treebank files in the Universal Dependencies project, which contains 200+ datasets for 100+ languages.
The framework is relaitvely simple, so syntax highlighting should be easy to configure for it.

Research direction
Start by reading the official Universal Dependencies format documentation and comparing the linked VSCode, SublimeText, and Atom highlighting implementations. Then inspect PrismJS's existing language definitions and testing approach. Done means CoNLL-U examples receive appropriate syntax highlighting without breaking existing grammars.
