## Description

htmlparser2 is a collection of tools for high-performance markup parsing, DOM manipulation, and incremental stream processing. It functions as an HTML and XML parser that converts markup strings into structured object trees, alongside a streaming markup parser designed for memory-efficient processing of large documents.

The project includes a DOM manipulation library for querying, modifying, and serializing document object model trees. It also provides a web feed parser to extract structured metadata and entries from RSS, RDF, and Atom feeds.

The library covers broad capabilities in data parsing, including the conversion of documents to DOM trees and the execution of web scraping workflows. These tools allow for the search and modification of parsed document structures before they are converted back into strings.
