Code isn't highlighted when opened in Books on an iPad #29

Description

So I'm desperately looking for an ebook reader that can chew through this book, but as for now only one reader that kinda sorta does it is, unexpectedly, Microsoft Edge. Whodathunkit.

It lags, it does everything very slow, margins are very wide, but nevertheless Edge handles rendering of the text itself pretty much ok.

I got back my old iPad mini 2, tried to open this epub in Books, expecting to see perfect rendering and super smooth operation, but no, the tablet immediately started heating up. Page turns lag for about .5-1 sec and there's no code highlighting.

Here's a comparison photo between Edge and Books.

Can the code highlighting be fixed? Or maybe you can recommend a decent reader which doesn't look like butt and can render all the nice things you put in here. iOS preferred, but UWP apps and even Android are ok, I have a large zoo of different devices.

And maybe the SVG graphs can be generated using white stroke for better legibility on dark background, but that's something I can live with.
