The main database is [JSON5](http://json5.org) format, a strict subset of Javascript, also available as a normal JSON, for convenience.



The extraction expressions are [Cheerio](https://cheerio.js.org), similar with jQuery.



The targeted information is:

- **the author**

- **the date** when the article was written

- and of course, the article text, as clean as possible



This project is designed to be used with [Clean-Mark](https://github.com/croqaz/clean-mark), but you can use it however you want.

## Important



[Clean-Mark](https://github.com/croqaz/clean-mark) already has algorithms to extract most of the info, if the website is SEO friendly, eg: it respects schema.org/Article, or Microformats, or the Open Graph protocol.


But it's not a perfect tool 🤖  and it needs help from us humans 🙄
