zyocum/reader
Extract clean(er), readable text from web pages via Mercury Web Parser.
This tool helps you quickly get a clean, readable version of a web page by removing ads, navigation, and other distractions. You provide a web page URL and receive the main article content as a JSON object, Markdown, or plain text. It is ideal for researchers, content curators, or anyone who needs to extract core information from articles and blog posts without the clutter.
122 stars. No commits in the last 6 months.
Use this if you need to programmatically extract the main body text from many web articles for analysis, archiving, or repurposing.
Not ideal if you require the full visual layout and all interactive elements of a web page, or if you prefer a simple browser extension for occasional reading.
