  3. pyppeteer

    Headless chrome/chromium automation library (unofficial port of puppeteer)

    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.

  4. playwright-python

    Python version of the Playwright testing and automation library.

    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.

  5. uvloop

    Ultra fast asyncio event loop.

    If you're looking for maximum requests per second you can change the asyncio event loop with one like UVLoop.

  6. requests-html

  7. InfluxDB
