If the content you need is static, I like using node + cheerio [0] as the selector syntax is quite powerful. If there is some javascript execution involved however, I will fall back to puppeteer.

Node.js and cheerio is what came to my mind too.

I heard the team behind Puppeteer moved from Google to Microsoft, and started the project Playwright, which has a more ergonomic API and better cross-browser support (Chromium, WebKit, and Firefox).
