An alternative is to use a package like playwright (or Selenium) to run a browser remotely and login.

Show HN: Use cookies from Chrome (CDP) in cURL without copy pasting
Using the tools at hand is often the best approach. That said, I've spent most of the last 13 years of my career automating browsers. For years, I used Selenium with a variety of libraries. After switching to Puppeteer/Playwright, I have zero interest in going back lol. Playwright actually has first party Python support. (Puppeteer has a port called Pyppeteer, but it's no longer maintained and the author recommends using Playwright)

I can't find any good Python Selenium tutorials out there. Anyone got any good links to video tutorials or even dcoumentatniton?
This is pretty great for web automation https://playwright.dev/python/

will requests-html library work as selenium
Last I checked, pyppeteer wasn't a thing anymore, and I haven't tried Playwright but if it has a headless mode, thats what you want so you don't have a browser open.

Toggle Line Comments in other languages?
there are cases where a file contains at least 2 programming languages . A case like this is when using the playwright-python library i.e. the code is mainly in python, but it can contain also JS code within a page.evaluate() function. When I try to comment out some lines within the page.evaluate() function, VS Code uses the "#" symbol, instead of "//". I can use multiple cursors to insert the "//"., but it's not so convenient, So I was wondering if there is a way to tell VS Code that this part of code is JS and it should use "//" for commenting out or if there is a plugin that can do this job (I didnt find one...)

The best testing strategies for frontends
With the advent of tools like Puppeteer and now Playwright, end-to-end testing has become much easier and more reliable. For anyone who's used Selenium in the past, you know what I'm talking about. Puppeteer has opened the way in terms of E2E tooling, but Playwright has taken it to the next level and made it easier to await for certain selectors or conditions to be fulfilled (via locators), thus making tests more reliable and less flaky. Also, it's a game changer that it introduced a test-runner - this made the integration between the headless browser and the actual test code much smoother.

HTML to PDF renderers: A simple comparison
HTML to PDF conversion is a common requirement in modern web applications. It allows users to save web pages, reports, and other content in a format that is easy to share and print. There are many libraries and services available for converting HTML to PDF, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. In this article, we will compare some of the most popular HTML to PDF renderers in Node.js, including Puppeteer, Playwright, node-html-pdf, and Onedoc.

How to build a WhatsApp AI assistant
This library works by creating an instance of WhatsApp web running inside an instance of headless chrome automated by puppeteer. In my testing, I ran into tons of compatibility issues when trying to use these dependencies inside anything other than a bare-bones Node.js + express server. Also, we can’t spin up a new instance of chrome and WhatsApp web each time a user sends a message, this will exhaust our allowed WhatsApp connections (4 max), not to mention that doing this will make the response times painfully slow.
