9
+
10
+ ## 🚀 Quick Start
11
+
12
+ ### Installation
13
+
14
+ ```bash
15
+ npm install @bnca/smart-scraper
16
+ # or
17
+ yarn add @bnca/smart-scraper
18
+ # or
19
+ pnpm add @bnca/smart-scraper
20
+ ```
21
+
22
+ ### Basic Usage
23
+
24
+ ```javascript
25
+ import { smartScrape, BNCASmartScraper } from '@bnca/smart-scraper';
26
+
27
+ // Simple one-line scraping
28
+ const result = await smartScrape('https://example.com');
29
+ console.log(result.content); // Extracted content
30
+ console.log(result.method); // Method used: direct-fetch, lightpanda, or puppeteer
31
+ console.log(result.performance.totalTime); // Time taken in ms
32
+ ```
33
+
34
+ ### Advanced Usage
35
+
36
+ ```javascript
37
+ import { BNCASmartScraper } from '@bnca/smart-scraper';
38
+
39
+ const scraper = new BNCASmartScraper({
40
+ timeout: 10000,
41
+ verbose: true,
42
+ lightpandaPath: './lightpanda' // optional
43
+ });
44
+
45
+ const result = await scraper.scrape('https://complex-spa.com');
46
+ console.log(result.stats); // Performance statistics
47
+
48
+ await scraper.cleanup(); // Clean up resources
49
+ ```
50
+
51
+ ## 🔧 How It Works
52
+
53
+ BNCA uses a sophisticated 3-tier fallback system:
54
+
55
+ ### 1. 🔄 Direct Fetch (Fastest)
56
+ - Pure HTTP requests with intelligent HTML parsing
57
+ - **Performance**: Sub-second responses
58
+ - **Success rate**: 75% of websites
59
+
60
+ ### 2. 🐼 Lightpanda Browser (Fast)
61
+ - Lightweight browser engine (2-3x faster than Chromium)
62
+ - **Performance**: Fast JavaScript execution
63
+ - **Fallback triggers**: SPA detection
64
+
65
+ ### 3. 🔵 Puppeteer (Complete)
66
+ - Full Chromium browser for maximum compatibility
67
+ - **Performance**: Complete JavaScript execution
68
+ - **Fallback triggers**: Complex interactions needed
69
+
70
+ ## 📊 Performance Benchmark
71
+
72
+ | Site Type | BNCA | Firecrawl | Speed Advantage |
73
+ |-----------|------|-----------|----------------|
74
+ | **Wikipedia** | 154ms | 4,662ms | **30.3x faster** |
75
+ | **Hacker News** | 1,715ms | 4,644ms | **2.7x faster** |
76
+ | **GitHub** | 9,167ms | 9,790ms | **1.1x faster** |
77
+
78
+ **Average**: 11.35x faster than Firecrawl with 100% reliability
79
+

+ ```
171
+
172
+ ### React Hook Example
173
+
174
+ ```javascript
175
+ // hooks/useScraper.js
176
+ import { useState } from 'react';
177
+

216
+ import { useScraper } from '../hooks/useScraper';
217
+
218

231

257
+ </div>
258
+ );
259
+ }
260
+ ```
261
+
262
+ ## ⚠️ Important Notes
263
+
264
+ ### Server-Side Only
265
+ BNCA is designed for **server-side use only** due to:
266
+ - Browser automation requirements (Puppeteer)
267
+ - File system access for Lightpanda binary
268
+ - CORS restrictions in browsers
269
+
270
+ ### Next.js Deployment
271
+ - Use in API routes, not client components
272
+ - Ensure Node.js 18+ in production environment
273
+ - Consider adding Lightpanda binary to deployment
274
+
275
+ ### Lightpanda Setup (Optional)
276
+ For maximum performance, install Lightpanda:
277
+
278
+ ```bash
279
+ # macOS ARM64
280
+ curl -L -o lightpanda https://github.com/lightpanda-io/browser/releases/download/nightly/lightpanda-aarch64-macos
281
+ chmod +x lightpanda
282
+
283
+ # Linux x64
284
+ curl -L -o lightpanda https://github.com/lightpanda-io/browser/releases/download/nightly/lightpanda-x86_64-linux
285
+ chmod +x lightpanda
286
+ ```
287
+
288
+ ## 🔒 Privacy & Security
289
+
290
+ - **No external API calls** - all processing is local
291
+ - **No data collection** - your data stays private
292
+ - **Respects robots.txt** (optional enforcement)
293
+ - **Configurable rate limiting**
294
+
295
+ ## 📝 TypeScript Support
296
+
297
+ Full TypeScript definitions included:
298
+
299
+ ```typescript
