$ wget -mpk http://ryanjacobs.io/
That commmand right there will clone my website locally. Now to view it, all you
have to do is open ./ryanjacobs.io/index.html
in your browser.
Typically you can just run:
$ google-chrome ryanjacobs.io/index.html
or if you're on Firefox
$ firefox ryanjacobs.io/index.html
or if you're using some other obscure browser, just point it to the location of the file.
This will clone the contents of example.org.
$ wget -mpk http://example.org
