tidy-html5

brew install tidy-html5 v5.8.0 Zlib

C library and command-line tool for validating, parsing, and pretty-printing HTML and XML.

Why you might care

Tidy is the industry-standard HTML cleaner with decades of stability; use it to automatically fix malformed HTML in build pipelines, validate markup, or as a library dependency for other tools. Unlike modern linters, it's lightweight, works offline, and doesn't require Node.js or complex configuration.
