Hello everyone. I thought that I’d share a link that uses the “\< span \>” style attributes that I’ve found helpful in creating my apps.

[https://catcode.com/styleinfo/index.html](https://catcode.com/styleinfo/index.html)

Each page discusses how to add colors, font styles, sizes, and even actual fonts. For them to work with Glide, you can only use the Rich Text Component.

Hope this helps…

Glide’s current advice is to not use HTML in the Rich Text Component and stick with Markdown. They say the functionality could go away at any time. So I would personally use these tips sparingly and be aware that they may not work or break your apps in the future.
