Formatting

An example code for kean.blog: Formatted Localizable Strings. Demonstrates how to implement basic string formatting using XML tags.

let input = "M1 delivers up to <b>2.8x faster</b> processing performance than the <a href='%@'>previous generation.</a>"
let text = String(format: input, "https://support.apple.com/kb/SP799")
let style = FormattedStringStyle(attributes: [
    "body": [.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 15)],
    "b": [.font: UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 15)],
    "a": [.underlineColor: UIColor.clear]
])
label.attributedText = NSAttributedString(formatting: text, style: style)

Result using standard UILabel:
