Developers are encouraged to use, re-use and modify the code subject to the terms of the GNU AGPL license. Since version 0.22.2, it has been placed under Git version control and is available on GitHub:

Is it safe and secure? It should be. Apart from examining the code themselves, developers can use third-party tools such as Socket to check the code’s supply chain integrity (if there are security alerts, then please contact the author).

For familiarization with the project, it is recommended browsing the ‘in depth‘ sections, especially the architecture and workflow. Whilst a phased approach is standard in most static site generators, the tasks here are quite different; rather than instantiating content templates, much of the effort here is about post-processing and adding a relatively small number of additional components.

It is currently just a prototype with many possibilities for further development. Even so, it already has a lot of functionality and serves my needs. Whilst I would be happy to see its continued development, especially in relation to the Wayback Machine, without investment, I am unlikely to have much more time to devote to it.

So, if anyone is interested in getting involved, particularly with a view of progressing the project towards being production-ready, then please get in touch.
