Answer 1

for linux:

1- you must have installed chromium browser using this command :

$sudo apt install -y chromium-browser

2- you have to get the excutable path of chromium using this command :

$which chromium-browser

3-put the executable path as an argument to the launch function :

   const puppeteer = require('puppeteer-core');
   (async () => {
   const browser = await puppeteer.launch({
   executablePath: '/usr/bin/chromium-browser',
   headless: false
    });
    const page = await browser.newPage();
    await page.goto('https://google.com');
    await page.screenshot({path: 'example.png'});

    await browser.close();
    })();
