Changed the technology to Playwright for maximum efficiency.
There are two versions of the bot, Selenium and Playwright. Both versions of the bot are tested 14th of February, 2024; both are working. Playwright version performs better than Selenium.
This bot was developed on a Linux machine, it may need some modifications to work on a Windows machine. Mainly link structure.
Add a UI(User Interface). I haven't started working on this, I think the bot will remain a CLI-only tool for now.
