Quick Take

import { strict as assert } from "assert";

import { stripHtml } from "string-strip-html";

assert.equal(
  stripHtml("Some text <b>and</b> text.").result,
  "Some text and text.",
);

// prevents accidental string concatenation
assert.equal(stripHtml("aaa<div>bbb</div>ccc").result, "aaa bbb ccc");

// tag pairs with content, upon request
assert.equal(
  stripHtml("a <pre><code>void a;</code></pre> b", {
    stripTogetherWithTheirContents: [
      "script", // default
      "style", // default
      "xml", // default
      "pre", // <-- custom-added
    ],
  }).result,
  "a b",
);

// detects raw, legit brackets:
assert.equal(stripHtml("a < b and c > d").result, "a < b and c > d");
