#2I was poking through the documentation - how does ArchiveBox generate the WARC file? I see the web page is archived in HTML, PNG and PDF using Chrome, but I don't think Chrome natively has the ability to create WARC files, does it?

#3If this were running on a self-hosted server, could it be invoked from an iOS shortcut on phone/tablet?

#4This looks very nice
As an aside,
wget -r -k -np
For permanent access I defer to archive.is

#5This sounds like a very good idea, but I'm having trouble making it work. For example, let's say I want to save a great website which will probably disappear soon (https://launchaco.com). I run `echo https://launchaco.com | ./archive` and then...? The generated index.html doesn't load css and js files. Or is this more for static content?
Is there some tool that would allow one to make a copy of a modern SPA? Is that even possible?
EDIT: I'm sad to see launchaco.com go, it would be a perfect tool for a project I'm working on. I don't mind paying, but I gather this is not possible anymore, and anyway, it might take some time for me to have everything ready...

Potentially, yes.
There is an open issue on GitHub to add an API. Once that feature is implemented, adding a web page where links can be submitted for archival becomes trivial.

Semes like the --warc-file= argument for wget https://github.com/pirate/ArchiveBox/blob/a74d8410f4c3f2f08f...

Damn, this actually looks nice. I wonder if we can archive.
