Need Help Building a Node Website Scraper – Any Tips or Best Practices?

CAPTCHAs are the worst, lol. I’ve used `puppeteer-extra-plugin-stealth` to avoid them, and it works pretty well.

For rate limits, I’d suggest using `rate-limiter-flexible`. It’s super customizable and easy to integrate.

Also, if you’re scraping a lot of pages, consider using a headless browser pool to speed things up. `browser-pool` is a good npm package for that.
