An HTML + Markdown viewer for iced

Render rich text in your iced app at lightning-fast speeds using plain HTML or Markdown!

1. Create a [MarkState] and store it in your application state.

use frostmark::MarkState;

let text = "Hello from **markdown** and <b>HTML</b>!";

let state = MarkState::with_html_and_markdown(text);
// or if you just want HTML
let state = MarkState::with_html(text);
// put this in your App struct

2. In your view function use a [MarkWidget].

iced::widget::container( // just an example
    MarkWidget::new(&self.mark_state)
)
.padding(10)

You can find runnable examples here

use frostmark::{MarkState, MarkWidget};
use iced::{widget, Element, Task};

#[derive(Debug, Clone)]
enum Message {}

struct App {
    state: MarkState,
}

impl App {
    fn update(&mut self, _: Message) -> Task<Message> {
        Task::none()
    }

    fn view(&self) -> Element<'_, Message> {
        widget::container(MarkWidget::new(&self.state))
            .padding(10)
            .into()
    }
}

fn main() {
    iced::application(
        || App { state: MarkState::with_html_and_markdown(YOUR_TEXT) },
        App::update,
        App::view
    ).run().unwrap();
}

const YOUR_TEXT: &str = "Hello from **markdown** and <b>HTML</b>!";

Note: Markdown support is optional and you can disable the markdown feature to have more lightweight, HTML-only support.

Markdown (if present) is converted to HTML using comrak. HTML is parsed using html5ever, from the Servo project. The resulting DOM is rendered directly to iced widgets using a custom renderer.

All enabled by default

• markdown : Adds markdown support alongside HTML. Disable this if you want HTML-only support, or a lighter program.
• Built-in iced features (can be disabled if you wish)
  • iced-wgpu : wgpu rendering backend
  • iced-tiny-skia : tiny-skia rendering backend
  • iced-tokio : tokio async runtime
  • iced-windowing : x11 and wayland backends

• Support for more elements (eg: superscript)
• Fix <ruby> edge cases
• (Maybe) support for CSS?

This library is experimental. Bug reports and pull requests are welcome; contributions are appreciated!
