+### Lyng Web utilities (`:lyngweb`)
+
+Reusable JS/Compose for Web utilities and UI pieces for Lyng-powered sites. The module is self-sufficient: adding it as a dependency is enough — no external CSS classes are required for its editor overlay to render correctly.
+
+#### What’s inside
+
+- `EditorWithOverlay` — a pure code editor Composable with a syntax-highlight overlay. It keeps a native `<textarea>` for input/caret while rendering highlighted HTML on top, staying in perfect glyph alignment. No built-in buttons or actions.
+- HTML utilities for Markdown pipelines:
+  - `ensureBootstrapCodeBlocks(html: String): String` — adds `class="code"` to `<pre>` blocks (for Bootstrap-like styling).
+  - `highlightLyngHtml(html: String): String` — transforms Lyng code blocks inside HTML into highlighted spans using `hl-*` classes.
+  - `htmlEscape(s: String): String` — HTML-escape utility used by the highlighter.
+- Backward-compatible `net.sergeych.site.SiteHighlight.renderHtml(text)` that renders a highlighted string with the same `hl-*` classes used by the site.
+
+All essential styles for the editor are injected inline; there is no dependency on external CSS class names (e.g., `editor-overlay`). You can still override visuals with your own CSS if desired.
+
+---
+
+#### Quick start
+
+1) Add the dependency in your JS `build.gradle.kts`:
+
+```kotlin
+dependencies {
+    implementation(project(":lyngweb"))
+}
+```
+
+2) Use the editor in a Compose HTML page:
+
+```kotlin
+@Composable
+fun TryLyngSnippet() {
+    var code by remember { mutableStateOf("""
+        // Type Lyng code here
+        import lyng.stdlib
+        [1,2,3].map { it * 10 }
+    """.trimIndent()) }
+
+    fun runCode() { /* evaluate code in your Scope */ }
+
+    Div({ classes("mb-3") }) {
+        Div({ classes("form-label") }) { Text("Code") }
+        EditorWithOverlay(
+            code = code,
+            setCode = { code = it },
+            // Optionally handle keyboard shortcuts (e.g., Ctrl/Cmd+Enter to run):
+            onKeyDown = { ev ->
+                val ctrlOrMeta = ev.ctrlKey || ev.metaKey
+                if (ctrlOrMeta && ev.key.lowercase() == "enter") {
+                    ev.preventDefault()
+                    runCode()
+                }
+            }
+        )
+    }
+
+    // Your own action buttons
+    // ...your own action buttons...
+}
+```
+
+The editor provides:
+- Tab insertion with configurable `tabSize` (default 4)
+- Smart newline indentation (copies the leading spaces of the current line)
+- Scroll sync and 1:1 glyph alignment between overlay and textarea
+- Inline styles for overlay/textarea; no external CSS required
+
+---
+
+#### Highlight Lyng code inside Markdown HTML
+
+If you render Markdown to HTML first (e.g., with `marked`), you can post-process it with `lyngweb` to highlight Lyng code blocks:
+
+```kotlin
+fun renderMarkdownLyng(mdHtml: String): String {
+    // 1) ensure <pre> blocks have class="code"
+    val withPre = ensureBootstrapCodeBlocks(mdHtml)
+    // 2) highlight <code class="language-lyng"> blocks
+    return highlightLyngHtml(withPre)
+}
+```
+
+Lyng tokens are wrapped into spans with classes like `hl-kw`, `hl-id`, `hl-num`, `hl-cmt`, etc. You can style them as you wish, for example:
+
+```css
+.hl-kw { color: #6f42c1; font-weight: 600; }
+.hl-id { color: #1f2328; }
+.hl-num { color: #0a3069; }
+.hl-str { color: #015b2f; }
+.hl-cmt { color: #6a737d; font-style: italic; }
+```
+
+---
+
+#### API Summary
+
+- `@Composable fun EditorWithOverlay(code: String, setCode: (String) -> Unit, tabSize: Int = 4, onKeyDown: ((SyntheticKeyboardEvent) -> Unit)? = null)`
+  - Pure editor, no actions. Wire your own buttons and shortcuts.
+  - Self-contained styling, adjustable with your own CSS if desired.
+
+- `fun ensureBootstrapCodeBlocks(html: String): String`
+  - Adds `class="code"` to `<pre>` tags if not present.
+
+- `fun highlightLyngHtml(html: String): String`
+  - Highlights Lyng `<code class="language-lyng">...</code>` blocks inside the provided HTML.
+
+- `fun htmlEscape(s: String): String`
+  - Escapes special HTML characters.
+
+- `object net.sergeych.site.SiteHighlight`
+  - `fun renderHtml(text: String): String` — renders highlighted spans with `hl-*` classes; kept for compatibility with existing site code/tests.
+
+---
+
+#### Notes
+
+- The editor does not ship default color styles for `hl-*` classes. Provide your own CSS to match your theme.
+- If you want a minimal look without Bootstrap, the editor still works out of the box due to inline styles.

+ * Example:

+ * ```
