htmls-to-datasette VS unmark

Note that SingleFile can be coupled with https://github.com/pjamar/htmls-to-datasette to index saved pages.

SingleFile browser extension pits any webpage into a handy .html file (https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile). I wrote htmls-to-datasette for search and serving them but it is still in a sorry state although it works (https://github.com/pjamar/htmls-to-datasette).

There you are: https://github.com/pjamar/htmls-to-datasette/tree/main/docker but no documentation.

Got my first functional version. In case anyone is interested: https://github.com/pjamar/htmls-to-datasette

Ultimately the best solutions will likely use many different cataloging strategies depending on the content, and will allow you to tag or otherwise organize important content.

Funny enough if I had such an app I could make a list of 4 or 5 apps, but right now can only find one:

I remember seeing one posted to HN that used the browser API to essentially dump all resources on every website you visit to disk.

There’s also bookmarking and archiving tools like:
