I've used Html Agility Pack for html parsing for ... jeez, nearly 20 years now. There are other more modern packages (like AngleSharp which is indeed quite nice) but Html Agility Pack has treated me well. Their main page has good starter examples.

One way you could do this is with .NET (i.e. C#), HTML Agility Pack, and some SQL library like SQLite (depending on how you want to store tables).
