    That being said there are some great libraries such as Down and SwiftyMarkdown have awesome markdown parsing. The only issue is that you may need to fallback to UIKit for some of the features.

    I'm happy to present you the first viable and usable version of my package SwiftDown. I wanted to create an editor that supports live preview without a web based one for most of mardown elements.

    Be careful when constructing NSRanges for Strings. The count of a string is not always equal to the length of an NSString.You should use string.utf16.count here
