Some dumb questions about impit

[amoguslmao]

Its kinda dumb to ask but, what does "imperson browser" mean? And does it like impit will request a URL like a normal browser do?

Hello and thank you for your interest in this project @amoguslmao

impit will request a URL like a normal browser do

Yes, that's what the "impersonation" part of impit essentially does. impit will (unlike regular Node.JS / Python HTTP clients) send the HTTP request in such a way that the server is not able to distinguish that it's coming from a script and not a regular web browser.

ahh thank you so much about the answer. i want to ask one more question to make sure if i was right, that is: do i need to pass these header like "Priority", "Sec-Ch-...", ... to simulate a normal request or impit will do that for me?

Impit impersonates the TLS fingerprint of the user agent as well as the HTTP headers. In a regular use case, you shouldn't need to pass the User-Agent client hint (Sec-Ch-) or any other "low-level" headers. Impit should do that for you automatically.
