Console’s review

· Reviewed by David Mytton

What we like

Download a URL to a single HTML bundle. Embeds all the assets into the file so it can be loaded offline (or more likely, when those resources disappear or change). Options to exclude assets like videos and audio. Can block domains e.g. to block ads or other included resources. Single binary CLI.

Tradeoffs

Requires a preprocessor if you want to save pages which use JS to load data after the initial page load.
