Correct, wayback has implemented remote and local archiving of various types of resources, including HTML, PDF, HAR, WARC, Readability (Markdown and Txt), and media files such as images, videos, and audio.

The author here, thank you all for your interest in Wayback as a tool. It is a hobby project, and due to limited effort and time, we have focused on improving specific aspects of the tool and making it more user-friendly, but we have not invested in marketing.

The readme structure of the project is still in its original version and is relatively behind the development process. However, we have recently added a basic documentation at https://docs.wabarc.eu.org, which still needs improvement.

During the initial stages of the project, the idea was rather unstructured, and we did not have a well-planned approach. It offers similar functionality to other tools of its kind, one of its most notable features is its integration with instant messaging (IM) tools such as Discord [0], Telegram [1], and etc [2].

At this time, Wayback is still in an early stage of development, having recently implemented remote and local archiving of various resources, including HTML, PDF, HAR, WARC, Readability (Markdown and Txt), and media files such as images, videos, and audio. One of our next major goals is to improve the tool's indexing capabilities.

Overall, we hope that our work on Wayback will be useful to others, even in its current state of development. We appreciate any feedback or suggestions you may have for making it better.

This sounds like a great idea about archiving assets out-of-line, and it will be one of the goals Wayback Archiver is pursuing.
