An Android rich text parser library that renders HTML and Markdown into TextViews, with support for images (including GIFs), click events, and memory/disk caching. The project is explicitly no longer maintained.

Use cases

• render html content in an android textview
• display markdown in an android app
• show rich text with clickable links and images in a listview
• play gif images inside a textview
• load base64 and local images in rich text
• parse html with custom image loading and caching

When to choose

• you need to render simple HTML or Markdown in an Android TextView with image and link handling
• you want a lightweight, low-intrusion parser with minimal dependencies
• you are maintaining a legacy Android app already using this library

When to avoid

• you need actively maintained software with timely bug fixes
• you target modern Android with hardware-accelerated GIF rendering
• you need rich text editing rather than display
• you require Jetpack Compose or modern Android text rendering
