Suggestions

Hi,
some quick suggestions to make code cleaner:

the Validations class is only used to check for Base64 validity which dotnet has a builtin function for. You could change

Indiko.Maui.Controls.Markdown/src/Indiko.Maui.Controls.Markdown/MarkdownView.cs

Lines 898 to 902 in 1c9e155

    
           if (Validations.IsValidBase64String(imageUrl)) 
        
           { 
        
               byte[] imageBytes = Convert.FromBase64String(imageUrl); 
        
               imageSource = ImageSource.FromStream(() => new MemoryStream(imageBytes)); 
        
           }

to

if (System.Buffers.Text.Base64.IsValid(imageUrl))
{
    byte[] imageBytes = Convert.FromBase64String(imageUrl);
    imageSource = ImageSource.FromStream(() => new MemoryStream(imageBytes));
}

and remove the Validations class.

the InvertedBooleanConverter is included in the MAUI community toolkit - you could replace it with that
there is a lot of manual Markdown parsing in the control - another possibility is to replace your parsing code by implementing a Markdig renderer and thereby focus more on the control code generation part

Hi Hans,

Thank you for your suggestions. We will double-check them and keep you posted.

In the new version (1.0.8) we use now "System.Buffers.Text.Base64.IsValid" Thanks for suggestion.
The Converter is totally removed, because there was no need for it.
For the moment we stick to our own parsing, maybe later we will move to the markdig parsing.

	if (Validations.IsValidBase64String(imageUrl))
	{
	byte[] imageBytes = Convert.FromBase64String(imageUrl);
	imageSource = ImageSource.FromStream(() => new MemoryStream(imageBytes));
	}
