Web Archiving Tools for All
---------------------------
`View the full pywb documentation <https://pywb.readthedocs.org>`_
**pywb** is a Python (2 and 3) web archiving toolkit for replaying web archives large and small as accurately as possible.
The toolkit now also includes new features for creating high-fidelity web archives.
This toolset forms the foundation of Webrecorder project, but also provides a generic web archiving toolkit
that is used by other web archives, including the traditional "Wayback Machine" functionality.
New Features
^^^^^^^^^^^^
The 2.0 release included a major overhaul of pywb and introduces many new features, including the following:
* Dynamic multi-collection configuration system with no-restart updates.
* New recording capability to create new web archives from the live web or other archives.
* Componentized architecture with standalone Warcserver, Recorder and Rewriter components.
* Support for Memento API aggregation and fallback chains for querying multiple remote and local archival sources.
* HTTP/S Proxy Mode with customizable certificate authority for proxy mode recording and replay.
* Flexible rewriting system with pluggable rewriters for different content-types.
* Significantly improved client-side rewriting to handle most modern web sites.
* Improved 'calendar' query UI, grouping results by year and month, and updated replay banner.
Please see the `full documentation <https://pywb.readthedocs.org>`_ for more detailed info on all these features.
