# Nodriver Async Undetected Chrome Browser Automation for Python

Nodriver is the official successor to Undetected-Chromedriver, providing async browser automation that communicates directly with Chrome DevTools Protocol without Selenium or WebDriver dependencies. Built for stealth web automation that bypasses anti-bot systems including Cloudflare and Imperva.

## Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
- #### you can use pip to install nodriver
- pip install nodriver
- pip install -U nodriver

Requirements and caveats from upstream:
- ### nodriver provides next level async webscraping and browser automation library for python with an easy interface which Just Makes Sense ™
- **This is the official successor of the** [Undetected-Chromedriver](https://github.com/ultrafunkamsterdam/undetected-chromedriver/) **python package.**
- requires opencv-python package to be installed

Basic usage or getting-started notes:
- uses fresh profile on each run, cleans up on exit
- Since this required quite some rewriting, please test thoroughly, especially if you run large projects.
- for example when a certificate is invalid.
