Deploy and Host Selenium + FastAPI on Railway

Selenium + FastAPI is a compact starter setup for running browser-driven scraping inside a container. It bundles headless Chromium, a tuned ChromeDriver configuration, and a clean API layer so scraping tasks can be triggered easily through HTTP.

About Hosting Selenium + FastAPI

Hosting Selenium + FastAPI on Railway ensures that all components needed for headless browser tasks run smoothly inside a managed container. Railway handles build steps, networking, environment variables, and scaling, while your service focuses on fetching pages, running browser actions, and parsing data through FastAPI endpoints. The system avoids manual browser setup and remains light enough for small plans. You can extend it with schedulers, queues, or new endpoints without touching the core setup.
