How does Crawlee differ to Playwright? #2217
-
|
I use Playwright. The Crawlee website says that it "builds on top of" Playwright. What extra value do I get from Playwright + Crawlee vs just Playwright? Thanks for any advice! |

It is pretty much listed on the website - https://crawlee.dev It manages request queue, autoscaling, state persistence, sessions & fingerprinting, statistics, and more. Crawlee is a scraping framework while Playwright is just an API to manage browser. |

Thanks. I've scanned the docs but wanted to be sure... Crawlee is JavaScript only? |

Yes, for now. At some point there might be a port to Python.

Pity no c#, but maybe one day. Last question if I may - it's open source but do i need to be an apify customer to use it? |

Of course not, it is really open source. Apify is just a good cloud platform to run Crawlee. |
