Function removeHtmlTags() document the regex being used.
Use this code block

/**
 * Removes all the HTML tags and leaves only the text content.
  *
 * @param input - The string from which HTML tags should be removed.
 * @returns A new string with all HTML tags removed.
 * 
 * @example
 * ```typescript
 * const str = '<div>Hello <b>World</b>!</div>';
 * const stripped = removeHtmlTags(str);
 * console.log(stripped); // Output: "Hello World!"
 * ```
 */
export function removeHtmlTags(input: string): string {
  // Regex explained
  //    <: Matches the opening angle bracket of an HTML tag
  //   /?: Matches zero or one forward slash /, to include closing tags
  // [^>]: Matches any character except the > symbol
  //    +: Ensures preceding pattern ([^>]) matches one or more characters
  // (>|$):
  //   > matches the closing angle bracket of an HTML tag.
  //   $ matches the end of the string. This ensures the regex can handle
  //     cases where the tag is incomplete or unclosed (e.g., <div)
  // g: Global flag to find all matches in the input string
  return input.replace(/<\/?[^>]+(>|$)/g, '');
}

Function convertEncodedXmlIntoJson(encodedXml: string, xmlParserOption: string = 'withArrayOption'): any implement the isArray() based of the XCCDF schema

Use Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) npm Library
