google-currency-scraper's Issues

Scrape more than one currency

Opening and closing the browser is heavy and expensive. If we want to scrape more than one currency, we can scrape all the requested data in one go by simply opening the browser once but visiting the search results multiple times.

Parse response without Puppeteer

We may fetch Google's HTML response and find the exchange rate and last updated date using cheerio without using Puppeteer i.e. without launching a browser. This will significantly improve the performance.
