Why HTML to MD Conversion Needs Review

HTML can include semantic content, visual styling, navigation, and application behavior, while Markdown represents mostly text, so HTML to MD intentionally simplifies the source.

Reviewing HTML to MD output helps distinguish useful article content from menus, repeated page furniture, or unsupported interactive elements.

CSS Has No Markdown Equivalent
HTML to MD can preserve supported meaning, but colors, fonts, spacing, responsive layouts, and other CSS presentation rules are not retained.
Dynamic Content May Be Missing
HTML to MD reads available document content; information loaded later by JavaScript may not exist in a saved local HTML file.
Page Furniture Can Add Noise
Navigation links, sidebars, cookie notices, footers, and repeated controls may appear in HTML to MD output when they are present in the source.
