Is it possible to insert HTML content inside a TextField component in Jetpack Compose?

In Jetpack Compose, the TextField component does not support inserting HTML content directly, as it works with AnnotatedString for text formatting.
If you need to display text with HTML markup, you can:
- Use
Html.fromHtml()to convert HTML toSpannedand then convert it toAnnotatedString(which requires additional processing). - Or use
ClickableTextorTextwithAnnotatedString, where you can manually set styles and clickable sections.
Direct support for inserting HTML into TextField is not available, as this is an input field, not for displaying formatted text.
If you need to display HTML, it's better to use Text with custom parsing or WebView for complex HTML.
