Direct answer
To use html-formatter, start with a small representative input, make structure easier to read without changing its meaning, and inspect the result before relying on it.
Key takeaways
- Purpose: make structure easier to read without changing its meaning.
- Check: tag nesting, attributes, accessibility and rendered output.
- Limitation: syntactically valid markup may still render differently across browsers.
Common mistakes
- Assuming the output is correct because the operation completed. Instead, inspect tag nesting, attributes, accessibility and rendered output.
- Using production or confidential material as the first test. Use a short article fragment with a heading, link and list instead.
- Ignoring compatibility: syntactically valid markup may still render differently across browsers.
