I recently released JustHTML, a python-based HTML5 parser. It passes 100% of the html5lib test suite, has zero dependencies, and includes a CSS selector...
When agents handle implementation, experienced engineers shift from typing code to architectural guidance. The division is about what gets delegated and what requires human judgment.

I wrote about JustHTML yesterday—Emil Stenström’s project to build a new standards compliant HTML5 parser in pure Python code using coding agents running against the comprehensive html5lib-tests testing library. Last …
Hi html5ever developers! I wanted to double-check if you think that my library is in violation of the html5ever MIT license. The background is this: https://friendlybit.com/python/writing-justhtml-...
This week we’re looking through a mix of security and AI once more. Because tech is nothing but those two topics, right? Right?

I recently came across JustHTML, a new Python library for parsing HTML released by Emil Stenström. It’s a very interesting piece of software, both as a useful library and as …
