Frequently asked questions

What is HTML list generator?

Turn a list of lines into an HTML unordered or ordered list.

When would I actually use this?

Getting usable data out of something that was never meant to be parsed: pulling every address out of a pasted thread, turning a column of lines into a JSON array or an SQL IN clause, renaming a hundred identifiers from snake_case to camelCase in one pass.

What is the most common mistake?

Trusting an extraction to be exhaustive. A pattern that catches every address in the sample will still miss the one wrapped across a line break, the one written with a display name, and the one an email client turned into a link — count what came out against what you expected before you use the list.

How is HTML list generator different from HTML to JSX converter?

They sit next to each other but answer different questions: HTML to JSX converter is the one to open when you need it to convert HTML to React JSX — class→className, for→htmlFor, self-closing tags and inline styles. Pick whichever matches what you're starting from — both are free.

Is there a tool for the next step?

Strip HTML tags is the closest one after this: Remove all HTML tags from a snippet and keep just the plain text.

What else is worth having open alongside it?

Text to HTML table and Wrap lines in HTML tag — they come up in the same task often enough to be worth a second tab.

Where do the figures come from?

Extraction runs on patterns, not on a parser: it recognises the common shapes of an address, a URL or an IP rather than validating them against their specification. That is the right trade for a paste, and the wrong one for input you are about to store.
