HTML Anything
Agentic HTML editor that turns markdown, CSV, and JSON into ship-ready posts for WeChat, X, Zhihu, and Xiaohongshu.
Pick HTML Anything if you already run a local coding agent and need a structured way to ship the same content into WeChat, Xiaohongshu, Zhihu, X, and standalone HTML.
Skip it if you want a hosted no-setup SaaS, don't already use a coding-agent CLI, or only publish to Western platforms where simpler tools suffice.
HTML Anything is an open-source desktop tool from Open Design that converts raw data (markdown, CSV, JSON, and more) into polished HTML across nine surface modes including magazine articles, keynote decks, posters, resumes, and data reports. It bundles 75 skill templates organized as forkable folders, streams output via SSE as the agent renders, and exports to platform-native formats for WeChat, X/Weibo, Xiaohongshu, Zhihu, plus standalone HTML and high-DPI PNG.
What sets it apart is the local-agent bring-your-own model approach: it auto-detects up to eight already-installed coding-agent CLIs (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, OpenCode, Qwen, Aider) and routes work through whichever you've authenticated, so there are no new API keys or subscriptions. That makes it a natural fit for solo builders, designers, and marketers who already pay for a coding agent and want a structured publishing surface on top of it, particularly anyone shipping into Chinese-platform formats that other Western tools ignore.
It's Apache-2.0 licensed with a public GitHub repo and downloadable desktop app. The trade-off is that it's not a hosted SaaS - you need a local coding agent installed and configured first, and the heavy focus on Chinese social platforms may be overkill if you only publish to Western channels.
A genuinely interesting wrapper that treats your existing Claude Code or Cursor install as the engine and adds a publishing surface tuned to the formats Western AI tools ignore. The Apache-2.0 license and local-agent model make it cheap to try, but the desktop-only, BYO-agent setup means it's aimed squarely at technical users.
