## What it is
A TypeScript library that extracts the main article content, title, image, and metadata from a given URL or raw HTML string. It supports custom transformations for specific sites and runs on Node.js, Deno, and Bun.

## Use cases
- extract article content from a url
- parse news articles to get title and main image
- get article metadata like author and publish date
- extract readable text from html pages
- build a read-it-later or rss reader app
- scrape blog post content for indexing

## When to choose
- you need to turn messy web pages into clean article data in JavaScript or TypeScript
- you want a lightweight, MIT-licensed extractor that works across Node.js, Deno, and Bun
- you need per-site transformations and content sanitization options

## When to avoid
- you need a hosted extraction API with guaranteed uptime rather than a library
- you need to scrape non-article pages like product listings or dynamic apps
- your stack is not JavaScript/TypeScript

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: web-scraping, parser, nlp
- domain: web-development, crawlers
- platform: bun, cross-platform
- tags: article-extraction, readability, content-extraction, metadata, typescript, natural-language-processing, nodejs, deno
