WARC (Web ARChive) format

A WARC (Web ARChive) is a file format used to store and preserve web pages and their related digital content for later access and analysis. Think of it as a digital snapshot or archive of a website at a specific moment in time, capturing HTML, images, scripts, and other resources. This format helps researchers, archivists, and organizations save web content to study or preserve digital history, ensuring that even if the original website changes or goes offline, the archived version remains accessible for future reference.
