Score: 7.5/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 8, Documentation: 8, Utility: 7)

HackerBook packages 20 years of Hacker News into a fully static, offline-first archive that runs entirely in the browser using SQLite compiled to WebAssembly. It innovatively combines static site principles with client-side database sharding to create an 'unkillable' distributed archive, offering both a ready-to-use viewer and a full ETL pipeline for rebuilding from raw BigQuery exports.

Target audience: data engineers, web developers, archivists
