Show HN: Structured HTML table data extraction from URLs in Go

This library aims to be something like pandas.read_html or table_extract Rust crate, but more idiomatic for Go.

htmltable enables structured data extraction from HTML tables and URLs and requires almost no external dependencies. Tested with Go 1.18.x and 1.19.x. Complex tables with row and col spans are natively supported as well.

    Nice idea, but where would you use it, though?

    so does this essentially allow querying pages for table data?
