UI.Vision RPA
Open-Source RPA Software (formerly Kantu)
The UI Vision RPA software is the tool for visual process automation, codeless UI test automation, web scraping and screen scraping. Automate tasks on Windows, Mac and Linux. The UI Vision RPA core is open-source with enterprise security. The free and open-source browser extension can be extended with local apps for desktop UI automation. UI.Vision RPA's computer-vision visual UI testing commands allow you to write automated visual tests with UI.Vision RPA - this makes UI.Vision RPA the first and only Chrome and Firefox extension (and Selenium IDE) that has "👁👁 eyes". A huge benefit of doing visual tests is that you are not just checking one element or two elements at a time, you’re checking a whole section or page in one visual assertion. The visual UI testing and browser automation commands of UI.Vision RPA help web designers and developers to verify and validate the layout of websites and canvas elements. -

crawler
Collection of JS reverse engineering examples for web scraping study
crawler is a collection of web scraping and JavaScript reverse engineering examples designed for learning how modern websites protect their data and how those protections can be analyzed. It contains many case studies that demonstrate how to analyze and replicate request parameters, cookies, and encryption logic used by real websites. Each directory in the project focuses on a specific target service or scenario, showing how browser network requests and JavaScript code can be studied to reproduce API calls programmatically. Many examples illustrate techniques such as debugging scripts, intercepting requests, analyzing encrypted parameters, and understanding authentication flows. crawler also explores common anti-scraping defenses and demonstrates how developers can examine them through debugging tools and reverse engineering techniques. -

serverless-chrome
Run headless Chrome/Chromium on AWS Lambda
Serverless Chrome contains everything you need to get started running headless Chrome on AWS Lambda (possibly Azure and GCP Functions soon). The aim of this project is to provide the scaffolding for using Headless Chrome during a serverless function invocation. Serverless Chrome takes care of building and bundling the Chrome binaries and making sure Chrome is running when your serverless function executes. In addition, this project also provides a few example services for common patterns (e.g. taking a screenshot of a page, printing to PDF, some scraping, etc.). Why? Because it's neat. It also opens up interesting possibilities for using the Chrome DevTools Protocol (and tools like Chromeless or Puppeteer) in serverless architectures and doing testing/CI, web-scraping, pre-rendering, etc. You must configure your AWS credentials either by defining AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY environmental variables, or using an AWS profile. -

Pydoll
Async Python library in automating Chromium browsers without WebDriver
Pydoll is a Python library designed for automating Chromium-based web browsers such as Chrome and Edge without relying on a traditional WebDriver layer. Instead of using external drivers, it connects directly to the Chrome DevTools Protocol through WebSocket, allowing scripts to control browser behavior more efficiently and with fewer compatibility issues. It provides a high-level API that simplifies common browser automation tasks while still offering access to low-level protocol features for advanced control. Its architecture is built around asynchronous programming using Python’s asyncio framework, enabling concurrent automation of multiple tabs and browser contexts. Pydoll also includes tools for monitoring and intercepting network traffic, allowing developers to analyze or modify requests and responses during automation workflows. It emphasizes realistic interactions and fingerprint management to reduce the likelihood of automated actions. -

ast-hook-forjs-re
AST-based JavaScript reverse engineering and variable tracing toolkit
ast-hook-for-js-RE is an open source JavaScript reverse engineering toolkit designed to help analysts locate and understand client-side encryption logic used by web applications. It works by intercepting browser traffic through a local proxy server and modifying JavaScript code before it executes in the browser. Using Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) transformations, it injects hook functions into the code to monitor variable assignments and other runtime changes during execution. This allows ast-hook-for-js-RE to capture variable values in memory and store them in a searchable database, effectively enabling variable-level monitoring of program execution. When a user encounters encrypted parameters in network requests, the captured variable data can be searched to determine where those values originated in the code. Once the relevant variable and code location are identified, analysts can trace backward to extract or reproduce the encryption logic used by the site. -

lightcrawler
Website crawler that audits site pages automatically with Lighthouse
Lightcrawler is a command-line tool designed to crawl a website and run automated audits on the discovered pages using Google Lighthouse. It works by starting from a given URL and recursively exploring linked pages to collect a set of pages that should be analyzed. Each discovered page is then evaluated using Lighthouse, which performs checks related to performance, accessibility, and web development best practices. This allows developers to audit multiple pages of a site automatically instead of manually running Lighthouse on each individual page. Lightcrawler supports configuration through a JSON configuration file, enabling users to customize how the crawler operates and which Lighthouse audits should be executed. Settings such as crawl depth and the number of concurrent browser instances can be configured to control how aggressively the crawler scans a site. It was created as a developer utility to help identify issues across an entire website more efficiently. -

JSSoup
JavaScript + BeautifulSoup = JSSoup
I'm a fan of Python library BeautifulSoup. It's feature-rich and very easy to use. But when I am working on a small react-native project, and I tried to find a HTML parser library like BeautifulSoup, I failed. So I want to write a HTML parser library that can be so easy to use just like BeautifulSoup in Javascript. JSSoup uses tautologistics/node-htmlparser as HTML dom parser, and creates a series of BeautifulSoup like API on top of it. JSSoup supports both node and react-native. JSSoup tries to use the same interfaces as BeautifulSoup so BeautifulSoup user can use JSSoup seamlessly. However, JSSoup uses Javascript's camelCase naming style instead of Python's underscore naming style.
