Here are the steps to integrate Markdown rendering into a C# WinUI 3 application:
xmlns:controls="using:CommunityToolkit.WinUI.UI.Controls"
MarkdownTextBlock
control to your XAML:<controls:MarkdownTextBlock x:Name="MarkdownText" />
MainPage.xaml.cs
), find the constructor or the OnNavigatedTo
method.Text
property of the MarkdownTextBlock
to your Markdown content:MarkdownText.Text = "# Hello, Markdown!\n\nThis is a **bold** text.";
You can customize the appearance of the rendered Markdown by setting various properties of the MarkdownTextBlock
control, such as FontFamily
, FontSize
, Foreground
, etc.
<controls:MarkdownTextBlock x:Name="MarkdownText"
FontFamily="Segoe UI"
FontSize="16"
ground="Black" />
That's it! You have now successfully integrated Markdown rendering into your C# WinUI 3 application using the Windows Community Toolkit. The MarkdownTextBlock
control will automatically parse and render the Markdown content you set in the Text
property.
Remember to handle any exceptions that may occur during the Markdown parsing process and to test your application thoroughly to ensure the Markdown rendering works as expected.

Yes, you can also use the WebView2 control to render Markdown content in your C# WinUI 3 application. Here's how you can integrate Markdown rendering using WebView2:
xmlns:controls="using:Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Controls"
WebView2
control to your XAML:<controls:WebView2 :Name="WebView" />
MainPage.xaml.cs
), find the constructor or the OnNavigatedTo
method.WebView2
control and load the Markdown content using JavaScript:private async void InitializeWebView()
{
await WebView.EnsureCoreWebView2Async();
string markdownContent = "# Hello, Markdown!\n\nThis is a **bold** text.";
string htmlContent = ConvertMarkdownToHtml(markdownContent);
WebView.NavigateToString(htmlContent);
}
private string ConvertMarkdownToHtml(string markdown)
{
// Use a Markdown library (e.g., Markdig) to convert Markdown to HTML
// Example using Markdig:
string html = Markdig.Markdown.ToHtml(markdown);
return $@"
<html>
<head>
<style>
body {{ font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; }}
</style>
</head>
<body>
{html}
</body>
</html>";
}
In this example, we use the Markdig
library to convert the Markdown content to HTML You can install the Markdig
NuGet package or use any other Markdown library of your choice.
InitializeWebView
method in the constructor or OnNavigatedTo
method:public MainPage()
{
InitializeComponent();
InitializeWebView();
}
That's it! The WebView2 control will now render the Markdown content as HTML. You can customize the appearance by modifying the CSS styles in the ConvertMarkdownToHtml
method.
Note that using WebView2 for Markdown rendering provides more flexibility in terms of customization and interactivity compared to the MarkdownTextBlock
control. However, it also requires additional setup and dependencies.
