Puppeteer

Puppeteer is the Node.js library for driving Chrome/Chromium via the DevTools protocol: screenshots, PDFs, scraping, testing, and automation with a high-level API. 95.7k stars, Apache-2.0, 51M npm downloads/month — the default browser-automation choice in the Node ecosystem. Playwright has surpassed it for cross-browser testing, but for Chrome-first automation (scraping, rendering, PDF generation) Puppeteer remains the simplest path.

```bash

npm install puppeteer

```

```js

const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');

(async () => {

const browser = await puppeteer.launch();

const page = await browser.newPage();

await page.goto('https://example.com');

console.log(await page.title());

await browser.close();

})();

```
