*A light-weight library for extracting meta tags from URL or HTML content.*

It allows you to:

- get all **meta tags from URL or HTML content** (including `title`, `charset`, and `html[lang]` attribute),
- set custom cache provider for caching the results of web scraping (using PSR-16 `Psr\SimpleCache\CacheInterface`),
- set custom HTTP client for web scraping (using PSR-18 `Psr\Http\Client\ClientInterface`),

This library can be considered as an extended alternative for [get\_meta\_tags()](https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.get-meta-tags.php) function.
