How do I convert an HTML file to reStructuredText?

Upload your HTML file to the converter, optionally adjust settings like heading levels or link style, click 'Convert', and download the resulting .rst file. The converter preserves the document structure, including headings, paragraphs, lists, links, and code blocks.

Why should I convert from HTML to reStructuredText?

HTML is designed for web browsers, while reStructuredText is a lightweight markup language used in Python documentation and Sphinx projects. Converting to reStructuredText makes your content easily maintainable in version control, readable in plain text, and compatible with documentation tools. It also removes unnecessary HTML tags, reducing file size and improving portability.

How does the converter handle HTML attributes like styles and classes?

The converter maps HTML headings to reStructuredText section underlines, converts hyperlinks to inline link syntax, and preserves code blocks with literal blocks. Inline formatting like bold and italic become *emphasis* and **strong** markers. Unsupported HTML attributes such as inline styles and class attributes are stripped to keep the output clean, but essential semantic structure is retained.
