The continue keyword is also important, or alternatively the condition to run it.

I often fail to notice it on the first look of some snippet of code

I like highlighting only the language concepts:

Reserved words are red

Strings are green

Constants/numbers are blue

Types/meta-language are yellow

Anything else is white.

It’s not too colorful but still gives you plenty of anchors for your eyes.

Cool article, really cool website, but the grayscale setup just doesn’t have enough contrast for my eyes to reliably pick up on it at a glance.
