}JVM
To use the library on JVM, you have to include:
dependencies {
implementation("com.mikepenz:multiplatform-markdown-renderer-jvm:${version}")
}Android

Markdown(markdown)Advanced Usage
The library offers the ability to modify different behaviour when rendering the markdown.
Markdown(
content,
colors = markdownColors(text = Color.Red),
typography = markdownTypography(h1 = MaterialTheme.typography.body1)
)// Use the bullet list symbol from the original markdown
CompositionLocalProvider(LocalBulletListHandler provides { "$it " }) {
Markdown(content)
}
// Replace the ordered list symbol with `A.)` instead.
CompositionLocalProvider(LocalOrderedListHandler provides { "A.) " }) {
Markdown(content, Modifier.fillMaxSize().padding(16.dp).verticalScroll(scrollState))
}Since v0.9.0 it is possible to provide custom components, instead of the default ones.
This can be done by providing the components MarkdownComponents to the Markdown composable.
Use the markdownComponents() to keep defaults for non overwritten components.
The MarkdownComponent will expose access to the content: String, node: ASTNode, typography: MarkdownTypography, offering full flexibility.
// Simple adjusted paragraph with different Modifier.
val customParagraphComponent: MarkdownComponent = {
MarkdownParagraph(it.content, it.node, Modifier.align(Alignment.End))
}
// Full custom paragraph example
val customParagraphComponent: MarkdownComponent = {
// build a styled paragraph. (util function provided by the library)
val styledText = buildAnnotatedString {
pushStyle(LocalMarkdownTypography.current.paragraph.toSpanStyle())
buildMarkdownAnnotatedString(content, it.node)
pop()
}
// define the `Text` composable
Text(
styledText,
modifier = Modifier.align(Alignment.End),
textAlign = TextAlign.End
)
}
// Define the `Markdown` composeable and pass in the custom paragraph component
Markdown(
content,
components = markdownComponents(
paragraph = customParagraphComponent
)
)
This project uses JetBrains markdown Multiplatform Markdown processor as dependency to parse the markdown content.
