Could you build this?
Partial A Playwright script that saves a page's DOM, CSS, and assets is buildable with AI help, but making a cloned Next.js or SPA app actually run again (hydration, bundles, API calls) is much harder. Legal exposure around copying sites is also a concern.
What it would actually take: The stack would be Node with Playwright for capture, plus a crawler, asset rewriter, and tracker-blocklist filter. The hard part is reconstructing dynamic behavior: recovering or reverse-engineering JS bundles, handling source maps, rewriting API endpoints, and keeping framework runtime state consistent. That takes deep web-platform and bundler knowledge, and the output still needs manual repair for many modern sites.
