Description

I wanted to know if it were possible to select specific languages to be included in the bundle for code highlighting.

Currently 0.5MB is dedicated to a lot of languages I will never make use of. Is there a way to build the MDEditor such that I can only import the ones I need hence reducing the bundle size?

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating how code-highlighting languages enter the bundle and how the package is built; done should mean consumers can select only the languages they need and the resulting bundle excludes the others.
