What is ArchiveWeb.page (Fork)?
ArchiveWeb.page (Fork) is a high-assurance browser extension built by techynAR, forked from the acclaimed open-source ArchiveWeb.page project. While traditional web crawlers and archive utilities capture static HTML representations of web pages, modern applications rely heavily on client-side state, dynamic single-page application (SPA) architectures, complex authentication sessions, and live user interactions. This fork extends web archival capabilities specifically for quality assurance, compliance audits, and offline preservation of stateful web applications.
Visual QC Snapshot & DOM State Capture
The standout capability introduced in this fork is automated final Visual State Capture. When recording dynamic SPAs, AI labeling environments, or complex interactive dashboards, traditional network capture can miss the instantaneous DOM state visible on screen right before recording ends. ArchiveWeb.page (Fork) captures and serializes the exact visual and DOM state at the moment recording stops, locking in client-rendered components, modal overlays, and visual sign-offs for foolproof offline review.
Canvas, SVG & Form Preservation
Standard web recording tools frequently fail to persist transient graphics drawn on HTML5 canvas elements or interactive SVG modifications. This fork introduces targeted serialization routines for canvas surfaces, vector diagrams, and filled form fields. Whether capturing AI data annotations, architectural diagrams, or filled evaluation forms, the active visual layer is faithfully frozen and written directly into the archive package.
100% Local Storage & Complete Data Sovereignty
Privacy and confidentiality are fundamental to internal workflows. ArchiveWeb.page (Fork) operates under a strict zero-telemetry policy: no analytics, no external tracking beacons, and no mandatory cloud synchronization. All captured network payloads, DOM snapshots, and embedded media remain strictly within your browser's local sandbox until you choose to download the archive. Optional IPFS sharing is available, but requires explicit user initiation.
Portable WACZ Format and Seamless Replay
Recorded sessions export to the open Web Archive Collection Zipped (WACZ) format, an industry standard endorsed by web preservation institutions. The resulting .wacz files can be replayed entirely offline using ReplayWeb.page or any compatible viewer, giving auditors, developers, and researchers an interactive, time-frozen replica of the original application experience.
