Expand description
Read-only Markdown, rendered to GPUI elements.
§What this component will not do
It does not execute HTML, and it does not swallow it. A fragment of raw HTML is rendered as the literal characters that were written, marked as unrendered. Interpreting it would let a document reach outside the reader’s text; dropping it would let a document delete its own content from view by wrapping it in a tag, which is worse than showing the tag.
It does not open links. A link shows its destination before it is
taken — in the node it publishes and in hover help — and reports
MarkdownEvent::LinkClicked. Whether that destination may be opened, and
by what, is the host’s to decide.
It does not fetch images. This crate has no network and no asset
resolution. An image is drawn as a placeholder naming its alt text and its
source, and reported once as MarkdownEvent::ImageRequested; a host that
has the bytes hands an element back through Markdown::image.
It does not guess at syntax. A code block is set in the mono face and
publishes the fence’s info string exactly as it was written. Colour comes
from host-supplied CodeSpans or from nowhere.
