By default, ezycopy uses fast HTTP fetching — no browser overhead, instant results. This works great for most articles and blogs.
For JS-heavy sites (Twitter/X, SPAs) or authenticated content, use --browser to render pages in headless Chrome:
- JavaScript renders correctly before extraction
- Your existing Chrome sessions provide authentication
- Dynamic content loads before extraction
On first --browser run, it will use your installed Chrome. If Chrome isn't available, it downloads a compatible Chromium automatically.
- macOS, Linux, or Windows
- Google Chrome (only needed for
--browsermode)
The Chrome extension provides the same extraction capabilities directly in your browser. See extensions/ezycopy/ for installation instructions.
