What’s new in Puppeteer
summary
Puppeteer is a Node.js browser-automation library that now exposes programmatic APIs to emulate light/dark mode, override time zones, and simulate vision deficiencies so scripts can capture screenshots and PDFs under those exact conditions. It adds experimental custom selector handlers for things like hasText and shadow-DOM queries, a product option to launch Firefox, and reports 319 of 638 tests passing on Firefox (~50%). The repo migrates to TypeScript, tightens CI and tests, and improves docs for easier cross-browser automation.
