Facilitates easy static website backup.
This tool facilitates website replication a.k.a. website backup. All the target's content is saved through the tool locally. Of course, this includes non-HTML static content like CSS, JavaScript, and images, so that the entire website can be browsed locally. There are some similar tools on the Internet but they are not ideal to use. Thus, this convenient Python script.
