I’d say Puppeteer is worth learning if you’re serious about web scraping and automation. It’s super versatile and the async stuff makes it feel modern compared to Selenium. But yeah, setup can be a hassle, especially if you’re new to Node.js.
For debugging, I always start with `headless: false` to see what’s going on. Once it works, I switch back to headless. Also, the Puppeteer Recorder extension for Chrome is a lifesaver for generating code snippets.
