Very interesting! I was thinking of using this to record test execution instead of recording mp4 videos – like Cypress does. Is there a reason rrweb would be a poor choice of this use case? Mostly trying to understand why Cypress is not doing this already.

Only downside I can think of is if the assets (images, fonts etc) that are being linked to change at a later date, your replay might look odd. There are ways to cache these so it’s not the end of the world. Big upside is being able to inspect your DOM and easily reproduce exactly what broke
Is there a way to encode all of them into base64 or another format that would allow serialization of everything into one bundle?
