Convert HTML
to Emacs

Converting from HTML

HTML has a real badass name. Hypertext markup language. I mean, it starts with Hyper, right? HTML is the most important language for websites. The internet would be just text without it. HTML has the structure of the content, the hierarchy, the images and all the good stuff. And the bad stuff (e. g. tracking) too. Convert all your text files to HTML and slap them on a webserver to get a website. The most simple workflow to make a blog. Did you know that you can view the HTML of every website you visit? Just do a right-click and view the source. Feel like a hacker now? Congratulations. That’s how I fell in love with HTML and the web. Don’t wait no more, convert all your files to HTML, for free.

The files end with .html by default.

Converting to Emacs Org mode

Oh man, we really learned a lot about text formats already, but Emacs Org mode is the nerdiest thing ever. It’s like a note keeping app and a todo app, like a project management tool and a book authoring tool. But all that based on a plain-text file. That’s real digital minimalism. No cloud, no binary data, no proprietary file formats, just a simple, good old plain-text file. Add headlines, lists, paragraphs, tasks, time tracking, agendas, tables. Thank you, Carsten Dominik, for developing such a great file format. By the way, the logo is a unicorn and that’s fair, after all it’s very unique.
