Looking for a reliable Node.js website scraper – any recommendations? or How to build an efficient No

"Looking for a reliable Node.js website scraper – any recommendations?"

Hey folks!

I’ve been messing around with a few Node.js website scraper tools lately, but none seem to handle dynamic content well *and* stay reliable.

Tried Cheerio + Puppeteer, which works okay, but feels a bit heavy for simple tasks. Anyone got a lighter combo or a solid library they swear by?

Also, how do y’all deal with rate limits? Proxies? Random delays? Would love some real-world tips.

Thanks in advance!
