Motive & Vision

Though internet is available nearly everywhere, what happens, when, say, it drops for a week? What happens if power is gone for a week?

You lose access to all the content within the internet; novels, tv shows, movies. With the popularity of subscription services and licensing, more and more content is being hosted entirely online, without the ability to download or archive it.

This is also a huge problem within the software and gaming industries as a whole; a large reliance on online drm has ruined offline gaming and productivity.

The goal here is to provide a solution related to online media, when there's no internet.

We want to ship a lightweight and expandable executable via NimScript, which will allow you to download and store media locally from, virtually, any site with a bit of work.

If you share our vision, feel free to head over to ADLCore, the backbone of this project. Or, feel free to contribute here too.

Have any ideas or an issue? Feel free to create an issue or talk to us in the Discord.
