Enables rendering HTML text in a text composable, supporting tags for bold, italic, links, and colors. Allows integration of theme colors and string arguments for flexible text styling.
HtmlText is a Kotlin Multiplatform library that allows you to render HTML content as Compose AnnotatedStrings. It supports basic formatting, hyperlinks, and color styling in a multiplatform-friendly way. HtmlText has been made accessible for screen readers and keyboard operation.
[!WARNING]
Starting with version 3.0.0-beta02, the Maven GroupId has changed tode.charlex.composeand artifact names changed frommaterial-html-texttohtml-text-material.
[!NOTE]
🚀 HtmlText is now Compose Multiplatform
To use colors like MaterialTheme.colors.primary in HtmlText, map simple colors.
HtmlText(
stringId = R.string.hello_world_cdata,
colorMapping = mapOf(Color.Red to MaterialTheme.colors.primary)
)
<resources>
<string name="hello_world_escaped">Hello <span style="color: #FF0000">World</span></string>
<string name="hello_world_cdata"><![CDATA[Hello <span style="color: #FF0000">World</span>]]>
Add actual HtmlText library:
dependencies {
implementation 'de.charlex.compose:html-text-material:3.0.0-beta02'
}
or
dependencies {
implementation 'de.charlex.compose:html-text-material3:3.0.0-beta02'
