The details on how to install NodeJs is discussed in detail in the Chapter of Installation of NodeJS.
Step 2 − Create an empty folder, say puppeteer in a location.
Step 3 − Launch the Visual Studio Code application and click on the Open folder link and import the folder we have created in Step2.
The details on how to install VS Code is discussed in detail in the Chapter of VS Code Configuration.
Step 4 − Open the terminal and move from the current directory to the directory of the empty folder that we have created in Step 2. Then run the following command −
npm
Step 5 − For Puppeteer installation, run the below mentioned command −
npm install puppeteer
Or,
npm i puppeteer
Step 6 − For installation of Puppeteer core, run the below mentioned command −
npm i puppeteer-core
Step 7 − After the installation of Puppeteer and Puppeteer core, we shall find the node_modules folder and package.json file generated within the empty folder we created in Step 2.
Step 8 − While working on a test, we have to add the below Puppeteer library in the code.
const pt = require('puppeteer')
