Browser Preview for VS Code
A real browser preview inside your editor that you can debug
Browser Preview for VS Code enables you to open a real browser preview inside your editor that you can debug. Browser Preview is powered by headless Chromium, and works by starting a headless Chromium instance in a new process. This can either be Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge. This enables a secure way to render web content inside VS Code, and enables interesting features such as in-editor debugging and more! Make sure you have Google Chrome installed on your computer. Browser Preview for VS Code is debuggable, launch URLs and attach Debugger for Chrome to the browser view instance, and debug within VS Code. You can enable in-editor debugging of Browser Preview by installing Debugger for Chrome, and configure VS Code's debugger to either attach or launch to the browser previews by using the provided configuration options. -

Critters
A Webpack plugin to inline your critical CSS and lazy-load the rest
It's a little different from other options because it doesn't use a headless browser to render content. This tradeoff allows Critters to be very fast and lightweight. It also means Critters inlines all CSS rules used by your document, rather than only those needed for above-the-fold content. Critters' design makes it a good fit when inlining critical CSS for prerendered/SSR'd Single Page Applications. It was developed to be an excellent compliment to the prerender-loader, combining to dramatically improve first paint time for most Single Page Applications. Import Critters into your Webpack configuration and add it to your list of plugins. That's it! Now when you run Webpack, the CSS used by your HTML will be inlined and the imports for your full CSS will be converted to load asynchronously. Create a Critters plugin instance with the given options. -

Cuprite
Headless Chrome/Chromium driver for Capybara
Cuprite is a Ruby driver for the Capybara testing framework that allows developers to automate browsers using the Chrome DevTools Protocol instead of traditional WebDriver-based tools. It is built on top of the Ferrum library and provides a modern approach to browser automation that removes the need for Selenium or external browser drivers. By communicating directly with Chromium-based browsers through the DevTools protocol, Cuprite enables faster and more reliable browser automation for testing and scraping tasks. The driver integrates seamlessly with Capybara, allowing developers to write feature tests that simulate real user interactions with web applications. Because it uses headless Chrome by default, Cuprite is well suited for automated test environments and continuous integration pipelines. Developers can also run tests with a visible browser window for debugging purposes during development. -

SlimerJS
A scriptable browser like PhantomJS, based on Firefox
SlimerJS is a scriptable browser. It allows you to manipulate a web page with an external Javascript script: opening a webpage, clicking on links, modifying the content... It is useful to do functional tests, page automation, network monitoring, screen capture etc. It is a tool like PhantomJs, except that it runs Gecko instead of Webkit, and it is headless when using Firefox 56+. It can be used with Firefox 59. Higher version of Firefox is not supported and probably will not be supported in the future, as the development is suspended for now. SlimerJS provides the same API of PhantomJS. The current version of SlimerJS is highly compatible with PhantomJS 2.1. See current release notes in docs/release-notes-*.rst, and read the compatibility table to know the implementation level. The main goal of SlimerJS is to allow to execute all scripts developed for PhantomJS. So you could use tools like CasperJS. In fact, CasperJs 1.1 and higher can be executed with SlimerJS! -

WKZombie is a Swift framework for iOS/OSX to navigate within websites
WKZombie is a Swift framework for iOS/OSX to navigate within websites and collect data without the need of a User Interface or API, also known as a Headless browser. It can be used to run automated tests/snapshots and manipulate websites using Javascript. WKZombie is an iOS/OSX web-browser without a graphical user interface. It was developed as an experiment in order to familiarize myself with using functional concepts written in Swift 4. It incorporates WebKit (WKWebView) for rendering and hpple (libxml2) for parsing the HTML content. In addition, it can take snapshots and has rudimentary support for parsing/decoding JSON elements. Chaining asynchronous actions makes the code compact and easy to use. -

Zombie.js
Fast, full-stack, headless browser testing using node.js
Insanely fast, headless full-stack testing using Node.js. Zombie 6.x is tested to work with Node 8 or later. If you need to use Node 6, consider using Zombie 5.x. If you’re going to write an insanely fast, headless browser, how can you not call it Zombie? Zombie it is. Zombie.js is a lightweight framework for testing client-side JavaScript code in a simulated environment. No browser required. Zombie will work with other testing frameworks. Since Mocha supports promises. Just like your favorite Web browser, Zombie manages multiple open windows as tabs. New browsers start without any open tabs. As you visit the first page, Zombie will open a tab for it. All operations against the browser object operate on the currently active tab (window) and most of the time you only need to interact with that one tab. You can access it directly via browser.window. You can access all open tabs from browser.tabs. This property is an associative array, you can access each tab by its index number. -

crawlee
A web scraping and browser automation library for Node.js
Crawlee is a web scraping and browser automation library. It helps you build reliable crawlers. Fast. Crawlee won't fix broken selectors for you (yet), but it helps you build and maintain your crawlers faster. When a website adds JavaScript rendering, you don't have to rewrite everything, only switch to one of the browser crawlers. When you later find a great API to speed up your crawls, flip the switch back. It keeps your proxies healthy by rotating them smartly with good fingerprints that make your crawlers look human-like. It's not unblockable, but it will save you money in the long run. Crawlee is built by people who scrape for a living and use it every day to scrape millions of pages. Meet our community on Discord. We believe websites are best scraped in the language they're written in. Crawlee runs on Node.js and it's built in TypeScript to improve code completion in your IDE, even if you don't use TypeScript yourself. -
