HTML to Gemini converters

I'm pleased to announce 2 related Gemini software applications.

You can use them as-is, for example for file conversion or dual web/gemini publishing.

Or if you are consuming HTML from the internet, you might want to simplify the HTML first using Readability or other HTML simplifying libraries to remove extraneous navigational cruft.

Any bug fixes and improvement suggestions welcomed.

html2gemini

A Go library to convert HTML to text/gemini

I've forked and adapted an existing Go library html2text which outputs a flavour of markdown so that it instead outputs text/gemini. Main features:

heading levels, bullets, blockquote, preformatted content
links done using embedded numeric citations and gemini links
tables prettified and wrapped in preformatted text

A simple command line application wrapping the html2gemini library you can put into your command line workflows.
