Serverless Chrome vs jsdom: What are the differences?

What is Serverless Chrome? Headless Chrome on AWS Lambda. The aim of this project is to provide the scaffolding for using Headless Chrome during a serverless function invocation. Serverless Chrome takes care of building and bundling the Chrome binaries and making sure Chrome is running when your serverless function executes. In addition, this project also provides a few "example" handlers for common patterns (e.g. taking a screenshot of a page, printing to PDF, some scraping, etc.).

What is jsdom? A JavaScript implementation of the WHATWG DOM and HTML standards, for use with node.js. It is a pure-JavaScript implementation of many web standards, notably the WHATWG DOM and HTML Standards, for use with Node.js. In general, the goal of the project is to emulate enough of a subset of a web browser to be useful for testing and scraping real-world web applications.

Serverless Chrome and jsdom can be primarily classified as "Headless Browsers" tools.

Serverless Chrome and jsdom are both open source tools. It seems that jsdom with 12.9K GitHub stars and 1.16K forks on GitHub has more adoption than Serverless Chrome with 2.01K GitHub stars and 203 GitHub forks.
