Android Compose: How to use HTML tags in a Text view

There is yet no official Composable to do this. For now i’m using an AndroidView with a TextView inside. Not the best solution, but it’s simple and that solves the problem.

@Composable
fun HtmlText(html: String, modifier: Modifier = Modifier) {
    AndroidView(
            modifier = modifier,
            factory = { context -> TextView(context) },
            update = { it.text = HtmlCompat.fromHtml(html, HtmlCompat.FROM_HTML_MODE_COMPACT) }
    )
}

If you have tags in the HTML you need to set the TextView property movementMethod = LinkMovementMethod.getInstance() to make the links clickable.
