+
+Adds a new property `meta` to Astro's [built-in `<Code />` component](https://docs.astro.build/en/reference/api-reference/#code-).
+
+This allows you to provide a value for [Shiki's `meta` attribute](https://shiki.style/guide/transformers#meta) to pass options to transformers.
+
+The following example passes an option to highlight lines 1 and 3 to Shiki's `tranformerMetaHighlight`:
+
+```astro
+---
+// src/components/Card.astro
+import { Code } from "astro:components";
+import { transformerMetaHighlight } from '@shikijs/transformers';
+---
+<Code
+  code={code}
+  lang="js"
+  transformers={[transformerMetaHighlight()]}
+  meta="{1,3}" />
+```
