In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to install turndown on POP! OS latest version.
Turndown is a simple and straightforward library that can convert HTML formatting to a marked-down format. For example, the process can convert headers, tables, lists, code blocks, blockquotes, and inline styles like bold or italic.
To begin, you can launch your Terminal by pressing CTRL+ALT+T. You can also click on the Terminal icon in the fifth section of the Dock and KDE Plasmashell.
Before you can install turndown, you must install Node.js, the JavaScript runtime that will allow you to run turndown as well. Enter the following command in the Terminal to install Node.js:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nodejs npm
Now that Node.js is installed, you can install Turndown by entering the following command in your Terminal:
sudo npm install -g turndown
To verify that the installation is successful, you can make sure that you have the latest version of turndown installed by entering the following command in your Terminal:
turndown --version
If you have installed turndown successfully, the Terminal should output the version number that you have installed.
You can now convert HTML to Markdown by running the program from the Terminal. You only have to enter the following command in the Terminal:
turndown --input source.html --output result.md
Where source.html is the HTML file that you want to convert, and result.md is the Markdown file that you want to create.
Turndown is a simple and effective solution to convert HTML-based files to Markdown-based files. Using the steps mentioned above will help you install Turndown on POP! OS latest with ease.
