## Description

swift-markdown-ui is a Swift rendering library that converts Markdown text into native user interface components. It functions as a declarative UI framework for transforming markdown syntax and structured content into native views, including tables, lists, and code blocks.

The project features a type-safe domain-specific language that allows for the programmatic generation of rich text and structured documents instead of relying solely on raw strings. It also includes an environment-based theming system for applying global design themes and granular visual overrides across a view hierarchy.

The library supports dynamic document layouts and custom style configurations to control the visual appearance of rendered text and blocks.
