This Python application converts Markdown files to HTML format. It supports the conversion of basic Markdown syntax, including bold, italic, and inline code, to their HTML counterparts. The application also includes validation for nested and correct usage of Markdown syntax to ensure the output HTML is as expected.

• Python 3.x

Clone the repository to your local machine:

git clone https://github.com/heereenveen/mtrpz_1lab

To convert a Markdown file to HTML, run the main.py script with the input file name as an argument. Optionally, you can specify an output file name to save the converted HTML:

python main.py input_file.md --out output_file.html

If no output file is specified, the program will print the converted HTML to standard output.

• Bold: Wrap your text with ** to make it bold. For example, **bold text** converts to <strong>bold text</strong>.
• Italic: Use _ to italicize your text. For instance, _italic text_ becomes <em>italic text</em>.
• Inline Code: To format text as inline code, enclose it with backticks (`). For example, `code` turns into <code>code</code>.

The application checks for incorrect nesting and unmatched symbols to ensure the Markdown is correctly formed before conversion.

If there are any issues with the Markdown syntax or if the input file cannot be found, the application will provide an error message and terminate the execution to prevent incorrect HTML conversion.

I can confidently say that the time spent writing unit tests was a very worthwhile investment for me. After all, writing unit tests allows you to ensure high code quality and detect errors at the early stages of development, which greatly facilitates the work of the developer.
