What it does

The user-agents tool generates random user agents for web scraping and automation, helping to avoid being blocked by websites that detect and prevent scraping from a single user agent.

When to use it
  • •When building a web scraper that needs to mimic different browsers and devices
  • •When automating interactions with websites that have rate limits or IP blocking
  • •When testing website compatibility across various browsers and platforms
Ready-to-paste prompt
console.log(new (require('@intoli/user-agents')).UserAgent().toString());
Heads up: The user-agents library uses TypeScript, so ensure you have a compatible version of Node.js installed (14 or higher) to avoid compilation errors
