About the project
ReproZip-Web builds on the capture and client-side replay tools of Webrecorder to capture the front-end of a website, and the reproducibility software ReproZip to encapsulate the backend dynamic web server software and its dependencies. The output is a self-contained, isolated, and preservation-ready bundle, an .rpz file, with all the information needed to replay a website. The .rpz file includes the source code, the computational environment, the operating system, software libraries, any files used by the app (for example, the data and static files), and a front-end capture of the site as an embedded .wacz file. Its lightweight nature makes it ideal for distribution and preservation.
This work has been supported by the New York University Libraries and generously funded by the Institute of Museum and Library Services (Preserving the Dynamic Web, grant number LG-250049-OLS-21).
