Native renderer — no more WebKit

Previews are now drawn natively with TextKit instead of a web view:

  • ~30 ms from request to a ready preview for a typical README (WebKit: ~200 ms). Large files show their first screen immediately; the rest is added in the background.
  • No web content or GPU helper processes, less memory.
  • Light and dark mode switch instantly, code colours included.
  • Finder thumbnails are now miniature pages drawn by the same renderer.
  • The WebKit renderer is still available: Use the WebKit renderer in the app.

Math, natively

Formulas are typeset with SwiftMath and the Latin Modern Math font — TeX-quality fractions, integrals, matrices and aligned equations, no JavaScript.

  • About 300 extra AMS/KaTeX symbols, KaTeX aliases (\R, \argmax, \dbinom, …), \tag, \overset/\underset/\stackrel, \xrightarrow and friends, text accents.
  • Environments: align, equation, alignat, array, rcases, multline, plus SwiftMath's aligned, cases, matrix family.
  • Fixed spacing: \quad/\qquad, \sin x, a, b.
  • 92% of the formulas in KaTeX's function reference typeset; unsupported commands (\underbrace, \boxed, \cancel, …) are shown as red source, like KaTeX does. See examples/math.md.
