Website Image Downloader — API & MCP examples

Download all images from any website (or just extract their URLs) with width, height, format, file size and alt text — as a ZIP, through a REST API, or as a tool for AI agents via MCP. Icons, sprites and tracking pixels are filtered out; srcset, <picture> and lazy-loaded images are handled.

This repo contains ready-to-run examples for the hosted Website Image Downloader (Apify Actor sste/website-image-downloader), plus dependency-light do-it-yourself extractors in Python and JavaScript.
