Question 1

How do I customize the font color for headings in Marky Mark?

Accepted Answer

You can set the textColorsForLevels property in headingStyling, as shown in the README where H1 is orange and H2 is black, allowing per-level color control.

Question 2

Marky Mark vs Down: which is better for iOS markdown?

Accepted Answer

Marky Mark renders markdown as native UIKit views with full styling control, ideal for custom designs. Down parses to attributed strings, better for simple text integration without view overhead.

Question 3

Does Marky Mark support markdown tables?

Accepted Answer

No, tables are not included in the default flavor. You must extend the library by adding custom rules and layout builders to implement table rendering, which adds complexity.

Question 4

How to handle links in iOS Today widgets with Marky Mark?

Accepted Answer

Use a custom URLOpener like ExtensionContextURLOpener, demonstrated in the example project, to handle link taps without access to UIApplication.shared in extensions.

Question 5

Can I use Marky Mark with SwiftUI?

Accepted Answer

Not directly, as it's UIKit-based. You would need to wrap MarkDownTextView in a UIViewRepresentable to integrate it into SwiftUI projects, adding extra layers.

Question 6

How to add a custom markdown rule in Marky Mark?

Accepted Answer

Create classes conforming to Rule, MarkDownItem, and LayoutBlockBuilder protocols, then add them using methods like addRule() and addLayoutBlockBuilder(), as detailed in the advanced usage section.
