Description
Can we enhance the syntax highlighting on the training content?
Step-by-step reproduction instructions (optional)
Go to https://learn.wordpress.org/lesson/accessing-wordpress-data/ You can view a couple of code blocks They have both JS and PHP code. But as a reader I find it hard to differentiate code
Screenshots or screen recording (optional)

@laxmariappan thanks for logging this.
This is a known issue that's related to the current classic theme that Learn.WordPress.org uses.
As we're busy developing a new block theme, once the new theme launches, this issue should be resolved.
cc @adamwoodnz it would be great if we could confirm that the code block syntax highlighting works as expected for lessons when the new theme is developed.

Thanks, I'll add it to the redesign project.
@jonathanbossenger I updated the code block language on the code block in the lesson plan and it looks like its working.
Is there something different expected?

Ah, my apologies folks, I was confusing the ability to highlight lines of code within the code block (which we don't have), with the ability to show syntax highlighting for specific languages, which we do have.
Thanks for picking this up @StevenDufresne, I'll make a note to update the code snippets in that course, and then close this ticket once that's done.
Hi Team,
After reviewing the mentioned section in this lesson, it appears to be working fine now!
So we can close this.
thanks @benazeer-ben
It looks good now with the new theme
We can close the issue, thanks
