Module html 

HTML to PowerPoint conversion

Parses HTML content and converts it into PowerPoint slide structures. No external dependencies required - uses a lightweight state-machine parser.

This is the Basic HTML Parser

This parser is designed for simple, fast HTML-to-PowerPoint conversion with minimal dependencies. For advanced web scraping and content extraction, see the web2ppt::parser module (requires scraper crate).

When to use this parser:

• Converting simple HTML strings
• Processing well-structured HTML files
• When you want zero external dependencies
• For embedded applications

When to use web2ppt::parser instead:

• Processing live web pages with navigation/ads
• When you need intelligent content extraction
• For automatic content cleaning and detection
• When you need to handle complex web page structures
