HTML pasted directly into a React component breaks in familiar ways: class is a reserved word, unclosed tags throw errors, and inline style strings are rejected outright. This converter translates raw HTML into valid JSX, applying React's attribute and syntax rules automatically so the markup renders instead of crashing your build.
React developers use it when porting static landing pages or email templates into components, and when embedding SVG icons whose markup uses attributes JSX will not accept as-is. Markup handed over by a designer or exported from a CMS becomes component-ready in one paste.
The translation from HTML to JSX is done by code executing in your own browser session. Nothing is uploaded or shared, so proprietary templates and unreleased page designs remain private while you convert them.
It renames attributes to React's camelCase forms — class becomes className, for becomes htmlFor, onclick becomes onClick — closes void elements like img and br with a slash, and rewrites markup so it parses as valid JSX.
CSS strings are converted into JavaScript style objects: property names become camelCase keys and values become strings, wrapped in the double-brace syntax React expects. A rule like background-color turns into backgroundColor.
Yes, but in JSX form. Standard HTML comments are rewritten using JSX's curly-brace comment syntax, since the HTML style is not valid inside a component's return value.
