Description
## Language name
ARM Assembly
## URL of example repository
My repository has [plenty of source files in ARM assembly](https://github.com/JoaoBaptMG/gba-modern/tree/master/source/math), since I have been working a lot with code for the Game Boy Advance. ARM assembly files are heavily used as well on other similar projects on the GBA dev scene (for example, [this one](https://github.com/felixjones/agbabi), a full repository of ARM assembly functions for the GBA).
## URL of syntax highlighting grammar
As far as I know, there's no syntax highlighting grammar specific for the ARM assembly files, but one could be adapted from the x86 assembly grammar.
## Most popular extensions
The most used are `.s` and `.asm`, though they would have to be manually defined on a .gitattributes file for it to work.
## Detected language
They are normally detected as "normal" assembly or even plain text, since `.s` doesn't have a set extension as far as I am aware.
## Note
I'm not sure about the similarity with the AArch64 assembly language, but since it is there, there _might_ be some use for syntax highlighting on it as well.
