Please ensure your pull request adheres to the following guidelines:

  • Use the following format:
    • [Name](link) - Brief Description of what the module does. (Status: Stable or In Development)
  • Make an individual pull request for each new item.
  • Link additions should be inserted alphabetically to the relevant category.
  • New categories or improvements to the existing categorization are welcome.
  • Check your spelling and grammar.
  • The pull request and commit should have a useful title.

Unsure whether something fits here or not? Answering these questions will help.

  • Is the tool used in a formal web archiving programme?
  • Does it archive or capture and preserve other people's data not just backup your own?
  • Does it make use of widely accepted web archiving standards (WARC, Memento, CDX, etc.)?
  • Is it focused on a broader sense of web sites and web-like platforms (public, interlinked), and not on individual applications that just happen to use a browser as a runtime environment?
