Getting Started

Unlighthouse CLI

Using the CLI is the quickest way to get familiar with Unlighthouse and is recommended for new users.

Setup

Requirements: Node 18.x or higher.

Using npx:

npx unlighthouse --site <your-site>
# OR pnpm dlx unlighthouse --site <your-site>

By default, Unlighthouse will attempt to use your system Chrome / Chromium install. If these are missing, a Chromium binary will be installed on your system.
