macOS Support

react-native-enriched-markdown supports macOS via react-native-macos. The native layer shares code with iOS through a platform abstraction header (ENRMUIKit.h), with macOS-specific implementations for context menus, text selection, and clipboard handling.

The macOS implementation supports the same rendering elements as iOS — CommonMark, GitHub Flavored Markdown (tables, task lists, strikethrough), images, code blocks, blockquotes, and all other supported elements. EnrichedMarkdownTextInput is also available on macOS with full support for inline styles, links, and the native context menu.

Known limitations

These will be addressed in upcoming releases:

• LaTeX math (both inline and block) is not available on macOS. The math engine (RaTeX) is distributed as a Swift Package, which requires use_frameworks! in CocoaPods. react-native-macos does not currently support use_frameworks! due to circular dependencies between React-Core and React-RCTText (microsoft/react-native-macos#1969). Math will be enabled once this upstream issue is resolved.
• Tail fade-in animation falls back to instant reveal (no CADisplayLink on macOS)
• VoiceOver accessibility is stubbed (pending NSAccessibility implementation)
• Font scale observation does not respond to system font size changes
• selectionColor affects only the selection background. The iOS-style caret + handle tinting isn't available on macOS, since AppKit's NSTextView doesn't expose them via tintColor.

Example app
