Playwright is a bit of an evolution of Puppeteer. Mostly the same API, extends the API a bit (I tend to prefer its abstractions over Puppeteer), and designed to work with multiple browsers. It came from many of the same developers as Puppeteer.

Does Playwright work with multiple browsers? I get the impression it can work with multiple engines, but they're just custom wrappers and not the full/original browsers.
I've been using Playwright for years testing safari/FF/chromium-based engines. Playwright team compiles every single browser at each new release.

It's great, no worry. Besides very minor things like mobile safari bugs (which you can't test on Macos safari neither, you need a real device or browser stack) it's perfect.
