In Shifter, the staticized content of a WordPress site is called an “Artifact.”
Reference: How to Staticize and Publish a WordPress Site
Each artifact can be downloaded to your local environment as an archive file. The downloaded file contains static content such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and images, and can be saved as a backup or used when uploading the site to another environment.
