• TidyHTML: Another Great FOSS Tool

    After I compose or edit an HTML file, I have to somehow know
    that I may have fucked things up.

    Since I code HTML by hand (no editors) there is always a possibility
    for mistakes.

    Thus, I always use TidyHTML to check the final product:

    <https://github.com/htacg/tidy-html5>

    AFAIK, there is nothing else available for off-line HTML validation.

    But the FOSS wonder does not stop here. A FOSS tag editor
    is also available:

    <https://bluefish.openoffice.nl/index.html>

    Bluefish and TidyHTML, and intelligent imagination, are all
    anyone should require to produce web pages.

    But, of course, the stupid distro lackeys can only grab
    some junk to which their convenient desktop "buttons"
    will point.

    What dumb-ass dogs!

    Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
