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.
