Key Pillars

🚀 Markdown-Native State: Markdown is the source of truth. The editor state is built directly around Markdown, ensuring consistent serialization.
✍️ Instant Inline Formatting: Type Markdown tags directly (**, _, #) and watch them transform instantly under the cursor. No preview split-panes, no mode-switching.
📋 Smart Clipboard Serialization: Copying formatted content automatically serializes it into Markdown, allowing users to paste directly into Slack, Discord, GitHub, or Obsidian.
🏷️ Triggers & Autocomplete: Define trigger symbols like @ or # to invoke suggestion overlays with built-in hardware keyboard navigation, hover cards, and context menus.

Features

✍️ Instant Inline Markdown Rendering

Type Markdown syntax directly and watch it convert as you write — no mode switching or preview pane required.

Syntax	Style
`text`	Bold
`text`	Italic
`__text__`	Underline
`[text](url)`	Link
`text`	`Inline code`
`~~text~~`	~~Strikethrough~~
`==text==`	Highlight
`#` at line start	Heading 1
`##` at line start	Heading 2
`###` at line start	Heading 3
`####` at line start	Heading 4
`#####` at line start	Heading 5
`######` at line start	Heading 6
`-` at line start	Bullet list
`1.` at line start	Ordered list
`>` at line start	Blockquote
`- [ ]` at line start	Checkbox (unchecked)
`- [x]` at line start	Checkbox (checked)
`[text](scheme:id)`	Mention

📋 Zero-Loss Markdown Clipboard

Visual selections automatically serialize to standard Markdown on copy. Paste formatted content directly into Obsidian, GitHub, or Slack.

To bypass serialization programmatically, use LocalHyphenRawClipboard to access the raw system clipboard directly.

⌨️ Keyboard Shortcuts

Full hardware keyboard support on Desktop and Web:

Shortcut	Action
`Ctrl / Cmd + B`	Toggle bold
`Ctrl / Cmd + I`	Toggle italic
`Ctrl / Cmd + U`	Toggle underline
`Ctrl / Cmd + Shift + S`	Toggle strikethrough
`Ctrl / Cmd + Shift + X`	Toggle strikethrough
`Ctrl / Cmd + Alt + X`	Toggle strikethrough
`Ctrl / Cmd + Shift + H`	Toggle highlight
`Ctrl / Cmd + Space`	Clear all styles on selection
`Ctrl / Cmd + 1`	Toggle Heading 1
`Ctrl / Cmd + 2`	Toggle Heading 2
`Ctrl / Cmd + 3`	Toggle Heading 3
`Ctrl / Cmd + 4`	Toggle Heading 4
`Ctrl / Cmd + 5`	Toggle Heading 5

↩️ Granular Undo & Redo History

Saves state snapshots at word boundaries, clipboard actions, and markdown conversions. The redo history is preserved across both toolbar toggles and programmatic changes.

🏷️ Trigger-Based Autocomplete Framework

Define triggers like @ or # to invoke suggestions menu with built-in hardware keyboard arrow/enter key synchronization, hover cards, and context dropdowns.

Installation

Using `libs.versions.toml` (recommended)

Add the version and library entry to your version catalog:

gradle/libs.versions.toml

[versions]
hyphen = "0.7.0-alpha01"

[libraries]
hyphen = { group = "io.github.densermeerkat", name = "hyphen", version.ref = "hyphen" }

Then reference it in your shared module:

shared/build.gradle.kts

kotlin {
    sourceSets {
        commonMain.dependencies {
            implementation(libs.hyphen)
        }
    }
}

commonMain is the source set that compiles for every target at once — Android, Desktop, and Web. Declaring Hyphen there means you write the dependency once and all platforms pick it up automatically.

Using string notation

// shared/build.gradle.kts
kotlin {
    sourceSets {
        commonMain.dependencies {
            implementation("io.github.densermeerkat:hyphen:0.7.0-alpha01")
        }
    }
}

Quick Start

val state = rememberHyphenTextState(
    initialText = "**Hello**, *Hyphen*!"
)

HyphenTextField(
    state = state,
    label = { Text("Notes") },
)

// Read the result at any time
val markdown = state.toMarkdown()

Choosing an Editor Component

Hyphen ships two editor composables. Use whichever fits your design:

`HyphenBasicTextEditor`

A thin wrapper around BasicTextField with no decoration. Use this when you control the layout yourself or want full design freedom.

HyphenBasicTextEditor(
    state = state,
    modifier = Modifier
        .fillMaxWidth()
        .padding(16.dp),
    textStyle = TextStyle(
        fontSize = 16.sp,
        color = MaterialTheme.colorScheme.onSurface,
    ),
    cursorBrush = SolidColor(MaterialTheme.colorScheme.primary),
    onMarkdownChange = { markdown -> /* sync to ViewModel */ },
)

`HyphenTextField` (Material 3)

Wraps HyphenBasicTextEditor inside a standard Material3 filled text field decorator — labels, placeholder, leading/trailing icons, supporting text, and error state all work out of the box.

HyphenTextField(
    state = state,
    label = { Text("Notes") },
    placeholder = { Text("Start typing…") },
    trailingIcon = { Icon(Icons.Default.Edit, contentDescription = null) },
    supportingText = { Text("Markdown supported") },
    modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth(),
)

Both composables accept the same styleConfig, mentionConfig, triggerPopup, onTextChange, onMarkdownChange, layoutDirection, and clipboardLabel parameters. The Material3 variant additionally accepts colors, shape, labelPosition, contentPadding, and all standard decoration slots.

🌐 Right-to-Left (RTL) & Bi-directional (Bidi) Support

Hyphen supports Right-to-Left (RTL) languages (Arabic, Hebrew, Persian):

// Inherit direction from local context (Default)
HyphenBasicTextEditor(
    state = state,
)

// Explicit direction override
HyphenBasicTextEditor(
    state = state,
    layoutDirection = LayoutDirection.Rtl,
)

Usage

Toolbar buttons — keeping focus on Desktop & Web

On Desktop and Web, clicking a button moves keyboard focus away from the editor. This causes the text selection to be lost before the style toggle runs. Fix this by adding focusProperties { canFocus = false } to every toolbar button so focus never leaves the editor when a button is tapped:

IconToggleButton(
    checked = state.hasStyle(MarkupStyle.Bold),
    onCheckedChange = { state.toggleStyle(MarkupStyle.Bold) },
    modifier = Modifier.focusProperties { canFocus = false }, // ← required on Desktop & Web
) {
    Icon(Icons.Default.FormatBold, contentDescription = "Bold")
}

This applies to any clickable element in your toolbar — IconButton, Button, IconToggleButton, etc.

Custom style config

HyphenBasicTextEditor(
    state = state,
    styleConfig = HyphenStyleConfig(
        indentSpaces = 4,
        boldStyle = SpanStyle(
            fontWeight = FontWeight.ExtraBold,
            color = Color(0xFF1A73E8),
        ),
        highlightStyle = SpanStyle(
            background = Color(0xFFFFF176),
        ),
        inlineCodeStyle = SpanStyle(
            background = Color(0xFFF1F3F4),
            fontFamily = FontFamily.Monospace,
            color = Color(0xFFD93025),
        ),
    ),
)

Programmatic control

// Load new Markdown content (resets undo history)
state.setMarkdown("# New content\n\nHello!")

// Toggle formatting from a custom button
Button(onClick = { state.toggleStyle(MarkupStyle.Bold) }) { Text("B") }

// Remove all inline formatting from the current selection
Button(onClick = { state.clearAllStyles() }) { Text("Clear") }

// Undo / redo
state.undo()
state.redo()

Mentions & Autocomplete

Hyphen supports trigger-based autocomplete and interaction for mentions (such as @users), hashtags (such as #features), or custom template variables.

1. Define Triggers

Configure the triggers and the Markdown schemes they map to. Triggers are completely optional and can be defined at initialization:

val triggers = listOf(
    TriggerConfig(trigger = "@", scheme = "user"),
    TriggerConfig(trigger = "#", scheme = "tag")
)

// Triggers can be optionally passed directly to rememberHyphenTextState
val state = rememberHyphenTextState(triggerConfigs = triggers)

2. Configure Interactions

Use mentionConfig (HyphenMentionConfig) to manage interactions with completed mentions, such as handling taps, presenting hover cards, or showing custom context Dropdown menus:

HyphenTextField(
    state = state,
    mentionConfig = HyphenMentionConfig(
        onMentionClick = { mention -> 
            println("Clicked mention: ${mention.display} with ID: ${mention.id}") 
        },
        hoverCardContent = { mention ->
            Surface(tonalElevation = 8.dp, shape = MaterialTheme.shapes.medium) {
                Text("Viewing details for ${mention.display}", Modifier.padding(8.dp))
            }
        },
        dropdownContent = { span, offset, onDismiss ->
            // Display a custom context menu on right-click / long-press
            val mention = span.style as? MarkupStyle.Mention
            if (mention != null) {
                DropdownMenu(expanded = true, onDismissRequest = onDismiss, offset = offset) {
                    DropdownMenuItem(
                        text = { Text("Profile") },
                        onClick = {
                            println("Opening profile for ${mention.id}")
                            onDismiss()
                        }
                    )
                }
            }
        }
    ),
    triggerPopup = { triggerState ->
        // Render your custom autocomplete suggestions menu
        MySuggestionMenu(
            query = triggerState.query,
            onSelected = { item -> 
                state.completeMention(id = item.id, display = item.display, trigger = triggerState) 
            }
        )
    }
)

3. Keyboard Navigation & Auto-Completion

When an autocomplete trigger is active, the editor automatically intercepts and routes arrow keys (Up/Down) and the Enter key to coordinate suggestion selection.

Watch state.suggestionSelectedIndex, state.suggestionCount, and state.suggestionSelectionRequested to control your suggestions popup.
Call state.completeMention(id, display) to insert a completed mention, which replaces the active query and registers a MarkupStyle.Mention style range.
Use state.insertMention(display, scheme, id) to programmatically insert a formatted mention at the current cursor index.

Tip

Hyphen includes a built-in TriggerSuggestions composable that handles standard Material3 list styling and keyboard selection synchronization for you out-of-the-box. Check the sample project for a full demonstration.

Reactive observation

// Callback — fires on every text or formatting change
HyphenBasicTextEditor(
    state = state,
    onMarkdownChange = { markdown -> viewModel.onContentChanged(markdown) },
)

// Flow — collect anywhere, debounce freely
viewModelScope.launch {
    state.markdownFlow
        .debounce(500)
        .collect { markdown -> repository.save(markdown) }
}

Bypassing Markdown clipboard serialization

Hyphen intercepts every Clipboard.setClipEntry() call made from within the editor. When there is an active selection it replaces whatever you wrote with the Markdown-serialized form of that selection. This is the right behaviour for a user pressing Ctrl+C, but not for a programmatic action like "Copy link URL" that is triggered from a context menu while the link text happens to be selected.

Use LocalHyphenRawClipboard to access the original, unintercepted system clipboard:

import com.denser.hyphen.ui.LocalHyphenRawClipboard

@Composable
fun LinkContextMenu(url: String, onDismiss: () -> Unit) {
    // Always falls through to the real system clipboard, ignoring any editor selection
    val rawClipboard = LocalHyphenRawClipboard.current
    val scope = rememberCoroutineScope()

    DropdownMenuItem(
        text = { Text("Copy URL") },
        onClick = {
            scope.launch {
                rawClipboard?.setClipEntry(
                    ClipEntry(ClipData.newPlainText("URL", url))
                )
            }
            onDismiss()
        }
    )
}

LocalHyphenRawClipboard.current is null when the composable is rendered outside a HyphenBasicTextEditor. Fall back to LocalClipboard.current if you need to handle both cases:

val clipboard = LocalHyphenRawClipboard.current ?: LocalClipboard.current

Important

On Android, LocalHyphenRawClipboard is essential for any custom clipboard write originating from inside the editor. Android has no alternative clipboard path — all setClipEntry() calls go through LocalClipboard, which Hyphen intercepts. If the editor has an active selection at the time (e.g. because a long-press on a link both selects it and opens a context menu), your custom value will be silently replaced with the Markdown-serialized selection unless you use LocalHyphenRawClipboard.

On Desktop and Web the interception follows the same pattern but there are additional native clipboard APIs available as fallbacks.

Checklist Styling

Checkboxes in Hyphen are rendered as native Material3 widgets overlaid on the editor. This ensures they always match your theme and remain perfectly aligned regardless of font size. Use checkboxCheckedStyle and checkboxUncheckedStyle to style the label text of the checklist items:

HyphenBasicTextEditor(
    state = state,
    styleConfig = HyphenStyleConfig(
        checkboxCheckedStyle = SpanStyle(
            textDecoration = TextDecoration.LineThrough,
            color = Color.Gray,
        ),
    ),
)
