What is lxml?
=============

lxml is the most feature-rich and easy-to-use library for processing XML and HTML in the Python language.
It's also very fast and memory friendly, just so you know.

For an introduction and further documentation, see `doc/main.txt`_.

For installation information, see `INSTALL.txt`_.

For issue tracker, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/lxml

Support the project
-------------------

lxml has been downloaded from the `Python Package Index`_
millions of times and is also available directly in many package
distributions, e.g. for Linux or macOS.

.. _`Python Package Index`: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/lxml

Most people who use lxml do so because they like using it.
You can show us that you like it by blogging about your experience
with it and linking to the project website.

If you are using lxml for your work and feel like giving a bit of
your own benefit back to support the project, consider sending us
money through GitHub Sponsors, Tidelift or PayPal that we can use
to buy us free time for the maintenance of this great library, to
fix bugs in the software, review and integrate code contributions,
to improve its features and documentation, or to just take a deep
breath and have a cup of tea every once in a while.
Please read the Legal Notice below, at the bottom of this page.
Thank you for your support.

conda-forge.org: lxml

The lxml XML toolkit is a Pythonic binding for the C libraries libxml2 and libxslt. It is unique in that it combines the speed and XML feature completeness of these libraries with the simplicity of a native Python API, mostly compatible but superior to the well-known ElementTree API.
