# HTML Tidy with HTML5 support
This repo is a fork of the code from [w3c.github.com/tidy-html5][3], which itself
is a fork of [tidy.sourceforge.net][1].
This source code in this version supports processing of HTML5 documents. The
changes for HTML5 support started from a [patch developed by Björn Höhrmann][2].
