whatsapp-web.js Lightweight version

This package is a lightweight version of whatsapp-web.js package.

It can be installed through:

npm i @taylorho/whatsapp-web.js

Requirements:

  • Node v18+
  • Google Chrome or Chromium already installed on the device

Difference from the original package:

The original package uses puppeteer, which goes with a fully functional chrome version (that increases the bundle size). This was changed by the puppeteer-core package, that uses a pre-installed version of chrome. Additionally, the node-fetch package was removed, because fetch API is already implemented on Node v18+ (and therefore the need for the 18+ version of node).
