# Playwright

#### What is Playwright?

Built by Microsoft, [Playwright](https://playwright.dev/) is a Node.js library that, with a single API, automates websites and web apps running on Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit. These APIs can be used by developers writing JavaScript code to create new browser pages, navigate to URLs, and then interact with elements on a page. In addition, since Microsoft Edge is built on the open-source Chromium web platform, Playwright can also automate Microsoft Edge.
