SwiftUI has markdown support out of the box. Are there any plans on introducing it to jetpack compose?

If not, any vetted 3rd party libraries? I'm googling around and found bunch of 100star ones, nothing seems to stand out?

you can use Jewel (Intellj's ui in Compose) markdown https://github.com/JetBrains/jewel/tree/main/markdown

Is that usable in android only? (I notice the compose desktop dependency; which from what I know is physically a copy of jetpack compose?)

Btw @Halil Ozercan I'm trying to use it in a chat conversation UI, for message (which can be markdown), and the whole LazyColumn acts weird, it wont scroll to it's end when flinging etc. I have to sort of double scroll to ge to the end. Have you seen this before?

[Halil Ozercan]

not the one you are describing but it definitely sounds plausible since layout calculation in some custom nodes have been problematic in the past.

please try to isolate the issue and report it on the repo
