- The author has developed a project called htmlpipe 2 to archive archive.is pages onto archive.org.
- The process involves using Singlefile to create an HTML page of an archive.is article, uploading it to ppng.io, and then using a static web page to display and archive the content.
- The project utilizes the open-source piping-server by nwgtck, allowing anonymous uploading of archive.is articles to archive.org.
- A tutorial is provided demonstrating the steps to archive a specific archive.is link using the htmlpipe 2 project.
- The technical explanation reveals that the static page contacts ppng.io to fetch raw HTML and display it, with all components being open-source and hostable by users.
