Job description
Target issue https://github.com/Textualize/textual/issues/6753 Task Fix the documented custom language example and included example file so they work with Textual's current tree sitter dependencies. Replace the incompatible tree sitter languages.get language usage with the supported per language package/API, and correct the installation note to match current dependency behavior. Keep the change focused on this walkthrough and its runnable example. Deliverables A focused upstream patch updating the docs and example, with any necessary regression or documentation validation. Confirm the documented setup installs the required language package and the Java example initializes/highlights successfully. Exact validation command(s) and results, including relevant test/docs checks. Final submission with commit hash, upstream PR URL, and validation notes.
