**TextAttributes** makes it easy to compose attributed strings.

```swift
let attrs = TextAttributes()
.font(name: "HelveticaNeue", size: 16)
.foregroundColor(white: 0.2, alpha: 1)
.lineHeightMultiple(1.5)

NSAttributedString(string: "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog", attributes: attrs)
```

## Features

- [x] Strongly typed properties
- [x] Chainable setter methods
- [x] A direct access to the `NSParagraphStyle` properties
- [x] Better autocompletion

## Usage

- **Get or set the `TextAttributes` properties:**

```swift
attrs.font = UIFont(name: "HelveticaNeue", size: 16)
attrs.backgroundColor = .white
```

> See [all the properties](#references)

- **Method chaining:**

The `TextAttributes` methods return `Self` to allow method chaining:

```swift
attrs
.lineHeightMultiple(1.5)
.underlineStyle(.styleSingle)
```

> See [all the methods](#references)

- **The methods are also constructors:**

The following are equivalent:

```swift
attrs
.font(name: "HelveticaNeue", size: 16)
.foregroundColor(white: 0.2, alpha: 1)
```

```swift
let font = UIFont(name: "HelveticaNeue", size: 16)
let color = UIColor(white: 0.2, alpha: 1)

attrs
.font(font)
.foregroundColor(color)
```

- **Access the underlying dictionary:**

```swift
attrs.dictionary // Returns the attributes dictionary of type [NSAttributedString.Key: Any]
```
