As a dev who primarily uses Elixir, I was excited to see that you built OpenOwl with it!

Out of curiosity, what made you choose Elixir?

I wanted to use Elixir to build my PDF scraper (https://github.com/Nezteb/scrape-pdf) but didn't want to spend too much time figuring out how to use Playwright from Elixir, so I went with Node. I'll have to borrow some of your methods!

Oh yeah, Elixir is just amazing <3. We use it for our commercial platform accessowl.io. Parts of OpenOwl are originated from there. It was the fastest way to push OpenOwl out. Moreover doing it like this allows us to use OpenOwl as library there.

But yeah I was thinking longer about it as Playwright is pretty good for scraping/RPA and works best with Node. One (expected) limitation is that we cannot easily open a browser window to let the user enter a OTP or solve a captcha as we encapsulated everything into Docker. Not sure how we can solve it yet...
