What is SelectableTextView?
SelectableTextView is an iOS library that provides a customizable text view component with advanced text selection and expansion capabilities. It solves the problem of limited text selection support in standard UIKit components like UILabel and UITextView by offering a flexible validator-based API for defining selectable regions and managing expandable content.
iOS developers building apps that require interactive text elements, such as social media apps with tappable hashtags, reading apps with expandable content, or any application needing custom text selection behavior beyond UIKit's defaults.
Developers choose SelectableTextView for its extensive customization options, prebuilt validators for common use cases, and seamless integration with Interface Builder, making it easier to implement complex text interactions without reinventing the wheel.
