RichTextKit helps you view and edit rich text in SwiftUI, UIKit and AppKit.
RichTextKit has a multi-platform SwiftUI RichTextEditor that can be added to any app:
The RichTextEditor supports text styles (bold, italic, underline, etc.), fonts and font sizes, colors, text alignments, image attachments, etc.
The RichTextEditor is powered by a UIKit/AppKit RichTextView that bridges the UIKit UITextView and AppKit NSTextView and adds APIs to make the view work similar on both platforms.
RichTextKit can be installed with the Swift Package Manager:

If you prefer to not have external dependencies, you can also just copy the source code into your app.
RichTextKit has a SwiftUI RichTextEditor that takes a text binding and a RichTextContext:
struct MyView: View {
@State
private var text = NSAttributedString(string: "Type here...")
@StateObject
var context = RichTextContext()
var body: some View {
RichTextEditor(text: $text, context: context) {
// You can customize the native text view here
}
}
}The editor uses a RichTextCoordinator to sync changes between the editor, context, and platform-specific view. You can use the context to change font, colors, alignment etc. and observe context changes to update the UI.
For more information, please see the getting started guide.
The online documentation has more information, articles, code examples, etc.
The demo app lets you explore the library on iOS and macOS. To try it out, just open and run the Demo project.
