# monolith
A data hoarder's dream come true: bundle any web page into a stand-alone HTML file.
You can finally replace that gazillion of open tabs with a gazillion of .html files
stored somewhere on your precious little drive.

Unlike conventional "Save page as …", `monolith` not only saves the target document,
but embeds JavaScript, CSS and image assets **all at once**, resulting
in a single HTML5 document that is a joy to store and share.

If compared to saving websites with `wget -mpk`, `monolith` embeds all assets
as data-URIs and therefore would display the page exactly the same at any given time,
being completely independent from the Internet.
