## Documentation

# Deploy and Host Puppeteer + Ts on Railway

**Puppeteer + TypeScript** is a lightweight automation setup combining Google’s Puppeteer library with the safety and structure of TypeScript. Ideal for developers who want type safety in browser automation tasks like scraping, testing, and scripting.

## About Hosting Puppeteer + Ts

This template deploys a Node.js service running Puppeteer with TypeScript support. It includes a basic TS setup with a compiler, headless Chromium launch, and sample script to get started. Designed for rapid prototyping and scalable deployment of browser automation tools, it compiles `.ts` files automatically and runs them on launch.

The included `Dockerfile` installs system dependencies for Chromium and uses a production-ready Node environment.
