How it works

Since there are so many HTML tags, it would be extremely tedious to document them all manually. In the meta directory, you will find code that solves this problem with the following steps:

1. Download the Markdown source for MDN's documentation of all HTML elements.

2. Parse the markdown to gather all tag names and descriptions, discarding garbage data and obsolete tags.

3. Use data from a YAML configuration file (meta/tags.yml) to gather information on suggested attributes and base classes to use for each tag.

4. Generate Python code to represent all of these tags, including their documentation.

Code generation

See the meta directory in the code.

Rendering
