just updated core to 10.2 went into the development tools template editor … it previously had colored syntax … now it looks like this (chrome and edge and duckduckgo - computer and mobile):
before there was colored syntax for comments, all the {% and {# and sensors, etc…eg, like this that i found in a websearch:
I guess it isn’t just me, did I miss the info and how to turn it back on somewhere?

### Describe the issue you are experiencing
Since updating to Home Assistant Core 2025.10.2, the integrated YAML editor (used in Automations, Scripts, and Scenes) has lost both syntax highlighting and autocompletion.
The text now appears as plain text without any color, and no suggestions are shown when editing YAML keys or values.
This happens consistently on both desktop browsers and the Android mobile app.
### Describe the behavior you expected
The YAML editor should display syntax highlighting and provide autocompletion for available keys, entities, services, etc., as it did before the 2025.10.2 update.
### Steps to reproduce the issue
1. Update Home Assistant Core to 2025.10.2
2. Open an automation or script
3. Switch to Edit in YAML mode
4. Observe that syntax highlighting and autocompletion are missing
