A Swift library for viewing and editing rich text in SwiftUI on Apple platforms, built on a bridge between UITextView and NSTextView. It provides a RichTextEditor/RichTextViewer with support for text styles, fonts, colors, alignments, and image attachments.

Use cases

• build a rich text editor in a SwiftUI app
• let users format text with bold, italic, and underline
• display read-only rich text content in SwiftUI
• add font and color controls to a text editor
• support image attachments in editable text
• unify UITextView and NSTextView behavior across iOS and macOS

When to choose

• you need a feature-rich rich text editor on Apple platforms with SwiftUI
• you need to support older OS versions lacking native attributed string editing
• you want platform-agnostic APIs over UITextView/NSTextView

When to avoid

• you target iOS/macOS 26+ and can use native TextEditor attributed string editing
• you need cross-platform (non-Apple) rich text editing
• you need a fully maintained long-term solution given the author's uncertainty about its future
