To apply an AttributedString to a Text view in SwiftUI, you can use the new text attribute protocol introduced alongside the text renderer in iOS 18 and aligned releases. This protocol allows you to pass data from your text to your text renderer. You can apply the attribute using the custom attribute text modifier. For example, you can mark specific words with a custom emphasis attribute. This is done by implementing the protocol and using a subscript with the attribute type as its key to check for the presence of the attribute on the text run.
