PuppeteerSharp is a .NET port of the official Node.js Puppeteer API for controlling headless or headful Chrome and Firefox. It supports navigation, input automation, network interception, screenshots, PDF generation, and both the Chrome DevTools Protocol and WebDriver BiDi.

Use cases

  • scrape dynamic web pages from a .NET app
  • take screenshots of websites programmatically
  • generate PDFs from web pages in C#
  • run end-to-end browser tests in .NET
  • automate form filling and clicking on websites
  • intercept and mock network requests in a headless browser

When to choose

  • you need Puppeteer-style browser automation in .NET or C#
  • you want cross-browser support for both Chrome and Firefox
  • you need to target .NET Framework 4.6.1+ or modern .NET including AOT compilation

When to avoid

  • you are working in Node.js, where the official Puppeteer is the natural choice
  • you only need simple HTTP requests without JavaScript rendering
  • you need Playwright-specific features like auto-managed browser builds across three engines
