  1. ArchiveBox

    🗃 Open source self-hosted web archiving. Takes URLs/browser history/bookmarks/Pocket/Pinboard/etc., saves HTML, JS, PDFs, media, and more...

    Project mention: Linkwarden: FOSS self-hostable bookmarking with AI-tagging and page archival | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-05-01

    I've used https://historio.us since 2011 and still pay for it to keep access to all the pages I've archived over the years. The price has been kept low enough that I can't bring myself to cancel it even though I've been using self-hosted https://archivebox.io/ for the last few years.

    I always include an archived link whenever I reference something in documentation. That's my main use at the moment.

    However, I also feel like I've gotten a lot of really good value when trying to learn a new development topic. Whenever I find something that looks like it might be useful, I archive it and, because everything is searchable, I end up with a searchable index of really high quality content once I actually know what I'm doing.

    I find it hard to rediscover content via web search these days and there's so much churn that having a personal archive of useful content is going to increase in value, at least in my opinion.

  4. playwright-python

    Python version of the Playwright testing and automation library.

    Project mention: How to scrape TikTok using Python | dev.to | 2025-04-30

    TikTok uses quite a lot of JavaScript on its site, both for displaying content and for analyzing user behavior, including detecting and blocking crawlers. Therefore, for crawling TikTok, we'll use a headless browser with Playwright.

  5. FlareSolverr

    Proxy server to bypass Cloudflare protection

    Project mention: Scraperr – A Self Hosted Webscraper | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-05-11

    >Seems cloudflare checkboxes / human verification are very commonplace nowdays. Curious how(/if) web scrapers get around those?

    You can get a real browser[1] to check the box for you, then use the cookies in your "dumb" scraper.
