Teleport

A time machine for the web. Drop a URL and browse its version history visually.

How it works

• Builds a timeline from the Internet Archive by probing the Availability API across a site's whole lifespan, capped to a scroll-free set of versions spanning its full history.
• Loads the whole timeline up front, then opens the machine on every version at once.
• Renders each version in a sandboxed frame from the toolbar-free archive, with back, forward, reload, and fullscreen.

Run locally

Requires Node 20.9+.

npm install
npm run dev

Open http://localhost:3000, enter a URL, and hit Teleport.

No environment variables, no database, no API keys. It talks straight to the public Wayback Machine.
