SteamCMD... Potential for building UI over it?
3 projects | /r/linux_gaming | 18 Jun 2023

https://github.com/DoctorMcKay/node-steam-user is a popular NodeJS library for writing steam bots. This could provide useful, but iirc the method this uses for login will only allow you to have one login session at a time. Steam will automatically kick you out with a "logged in elsewhere" error.

[Question] What is the state of stream bot development?
4 projects | /r/SteamBot | 29 May 2021

Depends on what language you're using for JavaScript I think the defacto is anything Doctor McKay makes https://github.com/DoctorMcKay/node-steam-user, https://github.com/DoctorMcKay/node-steam-user etc. If you use python, I'd recommend https://github.com/Gobot1234/steam.py (I'm totally not biased). If you use C# then SteamKit is always a good option. If you use rust then SteamHelper looks interesting although doesn't support too many trading bot features
Tools other than SteamAPI
2 projects | /r/Steam | 20 Apr 2021

I don't know any direct resources for learning how the Steam network works, smart people figured it out over many years and lots of reverse engineering. I just know a few programming libraries which you can use to interact with it, the most popular two being Steam-User (JavaScript) and SteamKit2 (.NET).
[Question] Boost Playtime Of Non-Played Games

One way you can do this, is by using the "steam user" node module node-steam-user. to play the games. And use the api call to Steam_Web_API to get the playtime of each of the games the account have.
