I’ve expanded my Web Change Monitor project with Playwright support, enabling it to monitor selected content on both static and JavaScript-rendered websites.

The application uses Requests and Beautiful Soup for static pages, while Playwright handles content that appears only after JavaScript runs.

Users can provide a page URL and CSS selector to monitor specific information such as prices, stock availability, product details, or announcements.

Key capabilities:

• URL and CSS selector validation • Static and JavaScript-rendered page support • SQLite storage for monitored pages and latest values • Comparison of current and previous results • Timestamped change history with old and new values • Error handling and activity logging

The system can be adapted for price tracking, stock monitoring, competitor research, and other website-monitoring workflows.

Built with Python, Requests, Beautiful Soup, Playwright, SQLite, and Logging.
