You have your own web domain (a blog, a course website, etc..) but you (or your institution or your government!) don’t want to keep maintaining or updating the site, but you still want to keep a high-fidelity archived, fixed in time?
Web archiving allow us to create high-fidelity copies of entire websites. Web archive mirroring is a new approach to keep the site, exactly as it was (or as close as possible) on its original domain (or replacement domain), but powered by a web archive!
This presentation will cover new open source tooling from Webrecorder, which allows for creating statically hosted (and low-cost) mirrors entirely from web archives.
We will provide simple examples and also cover more sophisticated examples of multi-site mirrors such as the one hosted on https://govarchive.us/
