\item \code{data}: indicator values in long format with columns \code{country_name}, \code{country_code},
\code{indicator_name}, \code{indicator_code}, \code{year}, \code{value}.
\item \code{country}: country metadata.

\description{
Download the entire World Development Indicators dataset as a single zip and return its
contents as a list of data frames. Useful for full-dataset analyses where paginating
through \code{\link[=wb_data]{wb_data()}} would be slow, and for accessing footnote and series-time metadata
that the API does not expose.
}
\details{
The download is roughly 280 MB compressed and may take a minute or more.
