I am looking for zola themes that have a “Copy to clipboard button” for code snippets  
Looking for something similar to mdbook [https://rust-lang.github.io/mdBook/cli/index.html](https://rust-lang.github.io/mdBook/cli/index.html)

Anyone knows of existing themes that have this feature? I need this for my technical documentation

You can add it for any theme, it’s the JS library [https://clipboardjs.com/](https://clipboardjs.com/)

Yep, it would require JS so very unlikely to be bundled with Zola.

You don’t need to do that anymore.
