On the front page, Monolith says it embeds javascript. Are you saying it doesn't use this javascript to render the page before taking a snap shot?

Sounds like they fetch the JS code from the url and embed those code in the HTML, but doesn't have a JS engine to execute those JS.

It probably means that if this JS fetched more JS it won't be included so if you render offline it will be broken.
