HTML2Excel Documentation

Library to convert HTML Tables to Excel file.

While libraries like pandas do read html files, they often don't work with merged cells and line breaks. This library was created with the sole intention of converting HTML tables to Excel files as they're seen while opening them with softwares such as MS Excel and LibreOffice.
