Convert VCARD to CSV

Understanding vCard and CSV file formats

The vCard file format is a standard for electronic business cards. It is widely used for sharing contact information between applications and devices. A vCard file typically contains details such as name, address, phone number, email address, and other contact information.

On the other hand, the CSV (Comma-Separated Values) file format is a simple text format used to store tabular data. Each line in a CSV file represents a data record, and each record consists of fields separated by commas. CSV files are commonly used for data exchange between different applications, especially spreadsheets and databases.
