A Node.js library providing a distributed web crawler powered by Headless Chrome via Puppeteer. It can crawl JavaScript-rendered (SPA) websites and export results as CSV or JSON Lines.

Use cases

  • crawl single-page apps built with React or Vue
  • scrape dynamic websites that need JavaScript rendering
  • run a distributed crawler with configurable concurrency and retries
  • export crawled pages to CSV or JSON Lines
  • respect robots.txt and follow sitemap.xml while crawling
  • take screenshots of pages as crawling evidence

When to choose

  • target sites are rendered client-side with modern frontend frameworks
  • you need distributed crawling with Redis-backed cache and priority queues
  • you want a promise-based Node.js API on top of Puppeteer for crawling

When to avoid

  • you only need to crawl static HTML where simple HTTP requests suffice
  • your project is not on Node.js
  • you need actively maintained software with frequent updates
