Quick investigation revealed that modern AI chat apps like Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity etc uses an unique technique to do syntax highlighting on Android devices.

The idea is simple - run Highlight.js in a hidden WebView and convert the output to native AnnotatedString.

The default focus indicator on Android? A ripple so subtle it's almost invisible.
