  • chromedp

    A faster, simpler way to drive browsers supporting the Chrome DevTools Protocol.

    I haven’t used Python for web scraping, however we’ve used https://github.com/chromedp/chromedp extensively with great success.

  • rod

    I've used https://github.com/go-rod/rod with success. Recommended!

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • playwright-go

    Playwright for Go a browser automation library to control Chromium, Firefox and WebKit with a single API.

    For python I used mechanize and later iteration, for go playwright is similar using a real headless browser which works very well.
