Syntax Highlighting
Do you have any plans for syntax highlighting in this repo? It appears common that treesitter repos (I sampled cpp, js and python) do have highlights.scm files. My general experience so far was that syntax highlighting starts working once I install the parser with TSInstall.
I started looking into it and if you don't mind, I'd like to give it a try :)
I was planning on it but wanted to finish the syntax first. I'm fine with any positive contribution at any time.
I see. I'm new to tree-sitter in general, so it doesn't really matter what I work on, it will be trial-and-error either way.
May I ask what your workflow is? So far I managed to get the parser working by itself and add it to neovim where I can inspect it in ts-playground (although it is not updating when the buffer changes). However, the syntax highlighting module is not enabled and I don't know how I can do so. Running tree-sitter highlight some-file.nu works fine, but no highlighting inside neovim.
My workflow is maybe less than that. I just do what I put in the read me. For inspiration, you can see how the helix editor shows the syntax highlighting. Someone contributed the scm files a few months ago.

could you please drop me a link to it? :)

I believe that this issue can be closed. There are only specific issues that need to be specifically addressed.
