What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded
A Node.js library that downloads entire websites to a local directory, including HTML, CSS, images, and JavaScript assets. It parses HTTP responses for HTML and CSS to recursively mirror static sites, with plugin support for extending behavior.
Use cases
- download a website for offline viewing
- mirror a static site with all css and images
- save a webpage locally with nodejs
- scrape a website's html and assets into a directory
- create a local backup copy of a website
- archive a site before it goes offline
When to choose
- you need to download static websites or pages with their assets
- you want a programmable Node.js API or plugin system for site mirroring
- you don't need JavaScript execution or dynamic content rendering
When to avoid
- the site relies on client-side JavaScript rendering (use website-scraper-puppeteer instead)
- you need a full-featured GUI mirroring tool like HTTrack
- you need to scrape data/extract structured information rather than mirror pages
