I created a simple Pinterest downloader available here. Instructions on how to use it are in the README.md file.
It uses NightmareJs which runs on Electron and makes "testing" web pages very easy to do. I really like its API and find it very intuitive to use. Unfortunately, NightmareJS is hardly maintained so I wouldn't recommend using it to create your next bot.
For anyone looking to take this further you might want to consider using Playwright or Puppeteer. I'm a big fan of JavaScript and being able to use it to scrape websites seems like a no brainer to me.
Anyone here use Playwright or Puppeteer to create similar bots and wish to share their experiences?
