Add syntax highlighting to auto generated gh-pages

How to make code snippets highlighted, while taking advantage of Jekyll autogeneration on github pages side? Is it possible to make it work with backticks notation? Or do I have / should I , move to over notation of code blocks?

I have this very simple site (at given commit) gh-pages branch with _config.yml:

kramdown:
  input: GFM

which I added to make newline to be newlines in my code snippets. (apart from this I can get rid of it).

I wanted to make code higlighted, but keep using backticks notation, can it? (Github preview highlights it properly, however generated page is just black)

P.S. Somehow "Add syntax highlighting to gh-pages" Q&A does not help as you see under links (or I do sth wrong).

Use jekyll highlight tag with this jekyll original pygment highlight css file.

{% highlight ruby %}
def foo
  puts 'foo'
end
{% endhighlight %}

You can also find a lot more css for pygment code highlighting.
