How to decode HTML using Swift?

Question

How to decode HTML from an API response like this JSON string to get clear HTML to put it into webView?

<head lang="pl">
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name='viewport' content='width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0'>
<style type="text/css" media="screen">

Fully converted HTML: https://pastebin.com/CKhXzYup

I know that firstly I have to cast JSON to dictionary, and then?

It may just be me, but that doesn't look like json. What code have you tried and what error message, or other undesirable behavior did you encounter? — Joshua Drake

Yes, it is JSON :) There was no error, I was trying to put url to webview and then get html instead of make request and then cast response to dictionary and get html. — Gorthez

Once you get the html string from the dictionary, load it into WKWebView. Eg.:

if let htmlString = yourDict["render_page"] as? String{
   let webView = WKWebView(frame: self.view.bounds)
   self.view.addSubview(webView)
   webView.loadHTMLString(htmlString, baseURL: nil)
}
