It functions as a command-line interface and programmatic library designed to save complete web pages and their associated assets into a single HTML file for offline viewing. The tool crawls URLs to discover and fetch linked stylesheets, scripts, and images, which are then embedded into the document as data URLs. It includes capabilities for session injection via external cookie files and authentication handling to backup protected or member-only content. The project covers broader functional areas including automated web scraping, asset filtering by domain or resource type, and network request customization. It also supports proxy routing through environment variables to manage network restrictions. ## Tags ### Content Management & Publishing - [Single-File Web Archivers](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/content-management-publishing/single-file-web-archivers.md) — Provides the core capability of saving complete web pages and their assets into a single HTML file for offline viewing. - [Web Page Archiving](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/content-management-publishing/web-page-archiving.md) — Saving complete websites as single HTML files to preserve content and styling for permanent offline access. - [Web Content Extraction Utilities](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/content-management-publishing/web-content-extraction-utilities.md) — Implements a programmatic interface for collecting web content and media into single files for offline use. - [Asset Type Filters](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/content-management-publishing/asset-type-filters.md) — Allows users to exclude specific resource types, such as video or scripts, from the final bundle.
