I remember being a junior engineer in 2015, and being asked to render a clickable link within a paragraph in an iOS app. Swift had just been released so we were still entirely on the ObjC/UIKit stack. It was an absolute nightmare. I _barely_ managed to make it work. I haven't really touched iOS since about 2016, so I assumed the new SwiftUI stuff would have this stuff built in. Obviously. Kind of insane that it wasn't.

The specific ask was already a bad idea.
Qt made this pretty easy 10 years ago
I thought attributed text handled this fine since forever. Did it not?
It's quite literally called Link

I'm not sure how much easier they can make it at this point.
