How to render Markdown content in text
Updated for Xcode 13.0 beta 5
New in iOS 15
SwiftUI has built-in support for rendering Markdown, including bold, italic, links, and more. I feel almost stupid writing this because honestly it takes no work to do – it’s literally built right into SwiftUI’s Text view, so you can write code like this:
VStack {
Text("This is regular text.")
Text("* This is **bold** text, this is *italic* text, and this is ***bold, italic*** text.")
Text("~~A strikethrough example~~")
Text("`Monospaced works too`")
Text("Visit Apple: [click here](https://apple.com)")
}
Download this as an Xcode project
And yes, that link is automatically tappable.
Note: Images aren’t supported.
