Hi! Day-one Hugo user (loving it so far).

I’m playing around with syntax highlighting and I’ve noticed the closing tags of JSX are not the same colour as the opening tags (a common problem with highlighters I believe). Has anyone else had and solved this issue? Thank-you for any help or pointers you can provide.
