webframe: evaluated as a scraper and a sandbox
AI summary
An evaluation of webframe, Jeff Lindsay's Go tool built on the glaze library that runs a web page like a program in a hidden headless web view, found it fast and lightweight for scraping with performance comparable to shot-scraper. It also surfaced rough edges including CSP failures, a 0×0 viewport, hanging loads, missing HTTP metadata, and limited browser controls.
