This might interest you as well [1]. Similarly, here is an example of presentation using this format [2]. [1] https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/Polyglot-HTML-ZIP-PNG [2] https://gi…

You can even make the file compatible with ZIP (and PDF) on top of that, see https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/Polyglot-HTML-ZIP-PNG/raw/... (and https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/…

There is a third option: - Save the page as a self-extracting ZIP file, see https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/Polyglot-HTML-ZIP-PNG

I have an example of a side-project [1] where I think I naturally applied the best practices described in this article. My goal was to see if it's possible to code an entire projec…

I just ran a test on a 10GB HTML page and called window.stop() via a 100ms setTimeout, which, in my opinion, simulates what would happen in a better-implemented case in SingleFile …

The call to window.stop() stops HTML parsing/rendering, which is unnecessary since the script has downloaded the page via HTTP and will decompress it as-is as a binary file (zip.js…

The reason I did not implement the innovative mechanism you describe is because, in my case, all the technical effort was/is focused on reading the archive from the filesystem. No …

I haven't looked closely, but I get the impression that this is an implementation detail which is not really related to the format. In this case, a polyglot zip/html file could als…

I would like to know why ZIP/HTML polyglot format produced by SingleFile [1] and mentioned in the article "achieve static, single, but not efficiency". What's not efficient compare…

If we were to compare this to the JS world, it seems Python’s async is closer to Babel-style generator-based coroutines [1] than to JavaScript’s async/await execution model. [1] ht…

You haven't got it wrong, the first example in the article behaves the same in JS, see https://jsfiddle.net/L5w2q1p7/ .

Thank you also for the kind words! Regardoing support, you can choose whichever method you prefer; it makes no difference to me actually.

Author of SingleFile here. Sorry, this is obviously not normal. Please feel free to report any bugs here https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile/issues .

Great idea, some people have already implemented it for the same type of need, it would seem (see the list of user agents in the source code). Implementation seems simple. https://…

FYI, zip.js has no issues with 1 (it can be fixed with standard extra fields), 3 (zip64 support), and 5 (you cannot have more than 64K of comment data at the end of the file).

Unfortunately, I will have difficulty answering your question because my knowledge is limited to the zip format. In the use case presented in the article, I find that the zip forma…

For implementation in a library, you can use HttpRangeReader [1][2] in zip.js [3] (disclaimer: I am the author). It's a solid feature that has been in the library for about 10 year…

The warning message you mentioned simply means that the extension can inject "content scripts" into the web pages you visit. This feature is necessary, for example, to remove ads t…

Bonus point for clients that don't support the HTTP “Accept-Encoding” header [1] and consume all your bandwidth. [1] https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Ac...…

Thank you for explaining your point of view on the interest of this conversation. Here's mine, I consider an offense to be something quite subjective sometimes. In some cases, it's…

I'm sorry. I'm open to discussion if you can explain what is offending to you
