Can anybody tell me about playwright vs puppeteer? The API looks very similar. At first glance it seems to be written by some of the same people. The major difference appears to be supporting different engines.
It looks like puppeteer may now support FF, but not WebKit/Safari.
It just seems like there is probably a story there.
- hankchinaski 6y agosupposedly some of the key contributors are the same people who also built puppeteer and the objective seems to be taking it a step further to support ALL rendering engines [0] >We are the same team that originally built Puppeteer at Google but has since then moved on. Puppeteer proved that there is a lot of interest in the new generation of ever-green, capable, and reliable automation drivers. With Playwright, we'd like to take it one step further and offer the same functionality for all the popular rendering engines. We'd like to see Playwright vendor-neutral and shared governed.
