Feedstock is a web crawler and scraper built for TypeScript developers who want speed without giving up control. It runs on Bun, supports Playwright, CDP, and Lightpanda backends, and handles deep crawling, markdown generation, structured extraction (CSS, XPath, regex), anti-bot detection, proxy rotation, and SQLite caching out of the box. If you've used crawl4ai in Python and wished it existed natively in TypeScript, this is that. (
Hey everyone, I built Feedstock because I kept reaching for crawl4ai for LLM data pipelines but work mostly in TypeScript, and bouncing between languages got old.
A few things I focused on:
- Speed. Runs on Bun with a fetch-first engine that only spins up a browser when a page actually needs it.
- AI-friendly output. Clean markdown, accessibility snapshots that give LLMs a compact view of the page, and change tracking so you only reprocess what's new.
- Flexibility. Playwright, CDP, or Lightpanda depending on the tradeoff you want.
The usual crawler stuff done well: proxy rotation, rate limiting, robots.txt, anti-bot detection, SQLite caching, and deep crawling with BFS/DFS/BestFirst.
It's open source. Would love feedback, especially from folks building data pipelines or agents that need fresh web data.
