## What it is
A collection of use case-driven JavaScript examples demonstrating how to use Puppeteer and headless Chrome for browser automation tasks. Each example solves a concrete problem such as measuring code coverage, verifying service worker caching, generating PDFs from DOM elements, or crawling a site.

## Use cases
- measure css and js code coverage during page load
- verify service worker caching for offline resources
- convert a dom element to pdf
- crawl a website and discover all its urls
- check if lazy loaded images render correctly for google search
- compare page load performance side by side
- learn puppeteer browser automation with examples

## When to choose
- you want copy-paste-ready Puppeteer scripts for common browser automation tasks
- you are learning Puppeteer and prefer working examples over API docs
- you need to audit page performance, caching, or SEO rendering with headless Chrome

## When to avoid
- you need the Puppeteer library itself rather than example code
- you need a production-ready scraping or testing framework with abstractions
- you automate browsers with a language other than JavaScript
