cheerio is a popular npm module that makes it easy to parse and manipulate HTML and XML.
cheerio is modeled after a reduced version of jQuery. Note that it's pretty different than default browser DOM methods, so you can't call things like .appendChild
or document.createElement
when using cheerio: it's not based on a full-fledged DOM or browser implementation. But, in exchange it's a lot faster and simpler.
