Copy websites to your computer (Offline browser)

HTTrack is an offline browser utility, allowing you to download a World Wide website from the Internet to a local directory, building recursively all directories, getting html, images, and other files from the server to your computer.

HTTrack arranges the original site's relative link-structure. Simply open a page of the "mirrored" website in your browser, and you can browse the site from link to link, as if you were viewing it online.

HTTrack can also update an existing mirrored site, and resume interrupted downloads. HTTrack is fully configurable, and has an integrated help system.

WinHTTrack is the Windows front end and WebHTTrack the one for Linux, BSD and macOS, where it also arrives with brew install httrack and in the release DMG. There is an Android app too, and underneath all of them the httrack command line.

Website

Main Website: https://www.httrack.com/

Compile trunk release

A git checkout ships only the autotools sources, so ./bootstrap (which runs autoreconf) regenerates configure first; this needs autoconf, automake and libtool. Released tarballs already include configure, so building from a tarball skips ./bootstrap.

git clone https://github.com/xroche/httrack.git --recurse-submodules
cd httrack
./bootstrap
./configure --prefix=$HOME/usr && make -j8 && make install

Or use the one-shot wrapper (bootstrap + configure + make), which forwards its arguments to configure:

./build.sh --prefix=$HOME/usr
