htvend is a tool to help you capture any internet dependencies needed in order to perform a task.
It builds a manifest of internet assets needed, which you can check-in with your project.
The idea being that this serves as an upstream package lock file for any asset type, and that you can re-use this to rebuild your application if the upstream assets are removed, or if you are without internet connectivity.
Has an experimental GitHub action to integrate within your GitHub build, archiving assets to S3.
