Warnings

fix Use incremental processing or another tool if memory is a concern.

fix Read the file content first: with open('file.html') as f: html = f.read()

Imports

mdka
```
import mdka
```
The library exposes a single function 'from_html' directly under the module.
from_html
wrong
```
from mdka import mdka_to_md
```
correct
```
from mdka import from_html
```
The function is called 'from_html', not 'mdka_to_md' or 'convert'.

Quickstart

Converts HTML string to Markdown using the from_html function.

import mdka

html = "<h1>Hello</h1><p>World</p>"
md = mdka.from_html(html)
print(md)
