Is there a text editor that would allow me to create syntax highlighting easily? (programming.dev)

Basically just the title said. The situation is basically I use a Domain-Specific Language called G'MIC, and to this day, I haven't found a satisfactory answer to the issue of lack of syntax highlighting. At the moment, I am using KDE Kate as it's pretty good at structuring the code with their find/replace feature, tab indicators, and multi-window support.

I can second this. I wrote a syntax highlighter for a DSL in Sublime ages ago and all I remember is that it was easy.

That said, you can definitely do this in VS Code, too (just I haven't personally tried it). IMO VS Code is the better editor.
