Serverless Chrome is a scaffolding framework and Serverless Framework plugin for running headless Chrome/Chromium on AWS Lambda. It bundles the Chrome binaries and ensures Chrome is running during serverless function invocations, with examples for screenshots, PDF printing, and scraping.

Use cases

  • take screenshots of web pages in aws lambda
  • print web pages to pdf serverlessly
  • scrape websites with headless chrome on lambda
  • run puppeteer in a serverless function
  • pre-render single page apps for seo
  • run chrome devtools protocol automation in serverless

When to choose

  • you need headless Chrome inside AWS Lambda functions
  • you use the Serverless Framework and want Chrome bundled automatically
  • you want examples for screenshot, PDF, or scraping serverless services

When to avoid

  • you need a maintained solution - the project is in maintenance mode and alternatives like chrome-aws-lambda exist
  • you run on non-serverless infrastructure where a normal Chrome install is simpler
  • you need Chrome on Azure or GCP functions, which are only 'possibly' supported
