# The Basics
## About Simple Selenium
Simple Selenium is a Python wrapper for Selenium that is intended to make browser automation as painless as possible.
## Main Features
* Automatically installs the correct/latest version of chromedriver/geckodriver for your OS & keeps it updated forever.
* Using Chrome with Simple Selenium is almost completely undetectable by anti-bot services like CloudFlare. Simple Selenium automatically sets the best stealth chrome\_options & patches chromedriver to run undetected while web scraping or running general automation tests.
* Converts Selenium functions into easy-to-remember aliases with plenty of added functionality.
* Incorporates classes like ActionChains & Alert directly into the Simple Selenium WebDriver class for maximum ease of access.
* Adds multiple additional element location methods.
* Built-in startup options for Chrome & FireFox (eg. headless, persistent profiles, etc).
* Proxies are fully supported. Chrome in Simple Selenium supports both IP & username:password authentication, FireFox currently only supports IP authentication.
## Early Development & Bug Reports
This module is still in alpha, so you may encounter bugs while using it. Please report any bugs to the GitHub repository: [https://github.com/aidens113/simpleSeleniumWrapper/issues](https://github.com/aidens113/simpleSeleniumWrapper/issues)
**Simple Selenium wrapper is currently only compatible with Windows & Linux. Using this module on other operating systems may result in a substandard or error-prone experience**
***
## How To Install
Using PIP:
```bash
pip install simpleseleniumwrapper
```
## Getting Started With Simple Selenium
Importing Simple Selenium:
```python
from simpleseleniumwrapper import WebDriver as SimpleSelenium
```
Initiating the Simple Selenium WebDriver class:
```python
driver=SimpleSelenium("chrome") #No need to install chromedriver (it's done automatically by Simple Selenium)
```
🎉 Congratulations! You've successfully setup & run Simple Selenium wrapper for the first time.
