swift - How to use Attributed String in SwiftUI

Question

How to use AttributedString in SwiftUI. There is no API available to use AttributedString in Text

iOS 15 and Swift 5.5

Text now supports markdown and also you can create custom attributes:

You can even get defined attributes remotely like:

iOS 13 and 14

You can combine multiple Text objects together with a simple + operator and that will handle some of the attributions:

A fully supported fallback!

Since it doesn't support directly on Text (till iOS 15), you can bring the UILabel there and modify it in anyway you like:

Implementation:

struct UIKLabel: UIViewRepresentable {

    typealias TheUIView = UILabel
    fileprivate var configuration = { (view: TheUIView) in }

    func makeUIView(context: UIViewRepresentableContext<Self>) -> TheUIView { TheUIView() }
    func updateUIView(_ uiView: TheUIView, context: UIViewRepresentableContext<Self>) {
        configuration(uiView)
    }
}

Usage:

var body: some View {
    UIKLabel {
        $0.attributedText = NSAttributedString(string: "HelloWorld")
    }
}
