How to display an archive of someone's twitter account?

Yeah, I'm also trying to archive some twitter accounts and haven't totally figured this out yet. Ultimately Twitter is a micro-blog platform so you need something that can take the data and display it in a blog-like view. A static site generator/SSG would work for this, though personally I'm leaning toward a single-page app/SPA setup. My vision is: I'll have a folder for the account with all the media and tweet data organized in subfolders, then at the base level of the folder I'll have an HTML document titled "viewer.html" that someone can just click and it will display a blog-like view offline in their browser. I intend to base the theme off of Micro.blog's Alpine theme, and I guess for the JS part of it I would use Vue or something similar. Anyway I'm putting the details off for later because it's more important to just save the data right now. But yeah, Twitter is a blog, you want to recreate a blog, look into how to make a blog, hope that provides some direction.
