PageCloner for desktop
The same website cloner, in a native window — without the one thing that holds the web version back. A browser tab cannot read another site's HTML, so the web build routes every request through public CORS proxies that rate-limit, mangle encodings and sometimes hand back an interstitial instead of the page. The desktop build has a real HTTP client and talks to sites directly.
- No proxies — requests go straight to the origin, so nothing in the middle sees which URLs you scan.
- No rate limits but the site's own, which means deeper crawls actually finish.
- Fewer failures — no interstitials, no mangled encodings, no proxy outages.
- Same analysis — identical modules, identical reports, identical exports.
Built from the same source as this site, on every release. Free and MIT licensed.
Which file do I want?
Windows
Take the .exe. It is an NSIS installer that installs for the current user, so it never asks for an administrator. The .msi is there for managed environments that deploy software through Group Policy.
macOS
One .dmg covers both Apple silicon and Intel — it is a universal binary, not two separate downloads. Requires macOS 10.15 or newer.
Linux
The .deb on Debian and Ubuntu, the .rpm on Fedora and RHEL. Both are around 3 MB because they link the WebKitGTK your system already has. The AppImage runs anywhere without installing, but carries that whole runtime with it and is roughly 80 MB.
The builds are unsigned
Code signing needs a paid Apple Developer certificate and a certificate from a Windows CA. Until those exist, macOS Gatekeeper and Windows SmartScreen will warn the first time you open the app: on macOS, right-click it and choose Open; on Windows, choose More info then Run anyway. Saying so plainly beats letting people wonder.
Because they are unsigned, every release ships a SHA256SUMS.txt so you can
check that what you downloaded is what CI built:
sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS.txt --ignore-missing
Prefer not to install anything?
The web build does the same analysis in a browser tab, with no download and no account — it just has to route requests through a public proxy to get at the markup. Scan a site in your browser, or build the desktop app from source.
