Is there a way to change the default syntax highlighting of the code cells in Pluto?

Injecting Css might work with Stylus for a particular browser. But is there a nicer way to add CSS/JS which Pluto will read before launching?  
Thanks.

This package [GitHub - JuliaAPlavin/PlutoStyles.jl](https://github.com/JuliaAPlavin/PlutoStyles.jl) would probably allow you to do what you want.  
You can also directly add a cell with an HTML style element if your change is notebook specific rather than general for all notebooks
