SingleFile
Captures complete web pages as portable HTML files for offline reference and personal archiving.
Meet SingleFile
SingleFile preserves a page's content in one HTML file rather than saving only its URL. It supports individual pages, selected tabs and batch capture, with annotation options that make it useful for keeping a durable copy of research material.
This is an archival companion to bookmarking, not a full hosted bookmark catalog. Files normally remain under the user's control, while optional upload destinations and a command-line tool support more advanced workflows; browser extensions also cover Safari and Firefox on supported mobile platforms.
