How do I convert HTML to EDN?

Upload your .html file or paste HTML code into the converter. Select EDN as the target format and click 'Convert'. The tool parses the DOM and emits a .edn file containing nested maps/vectors with tag names as keys and attributes/text as values. Download the result, then parse it in any Clojure or EDN-compatible application.

Why would I convert HTML to EDN instead of using JSON?

HTML is a markup language for rendering web pages, while EDN is a data serialization format native to Clojure. Converting HTML to EDN lets you treat page content as queryable data—useful for web scraping, metadata extraction, or feeding structured content into Clojure backend systems without building a custom HTML parser.

Does HTML to EDN conversion preserve all tags, attributes, and text?

Yes, the converter preserves the document structure. Each HTML element becomes a map tag, attributes (id, class, href, src, data-*) become key-value pairs, and text nodes are stored as strings. Nested elements are represented as vectors of child maps, so the original hierarchy is retained. Comments and doctype declarations are also kept as special EDN keys.

Is HTML-TO-EDN free to use?

Yes, HTML-TO-EDN on LetsConvert is 100% free with no registration or hidden fees required.

Are my uploaded files safe and secure?

Yes! File privacy and security are guaranteed. Basic conversions run locally in your browser. Files sent for server processing are automatically deleted within 1 hour.

Does this converter work on mobile phones and tablets?

Yes! HTML-TO-EDN works seamlessly across iPhone, Android, iPad, Mac, Windows, and Linux browsers without installing any app.

Is there any software installation required?

No software or browser extension installation is needed. All conversions are performed directly online.
