What is this?

This is a list of HTML tag names. It includes ancient (for example, nextid and basefont) and modern (for example, search and shadow) names from the HTML living standard. The repo includes scripts to regenerate the data from the specs.

When should I use this?

You can use this package when you need to know what tag names are allowed in any version of HTML.

In Deno with esm.sh:

In browsers with esm.sh:

<script type="module">
  import {htmlTagNames} from 'https://esm.sh/html-tag-names@2?bundle'
</script>

Use

import {htmlTagNames} from 'html-tag-names'

console.log(htmlTagNames.length) // => 148
