The package supports Python 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, and 3.13 on macOS, Windows, and POSIX systems.\n\nThe library is explicitly marked as no longer supported in its own description, despite showing recent release activity. It was originally designed for browser automation and testing workflows, but the fact sheet does not clarify whether it remains the recommended tool or whether users should migrate to alternatives.","worth_installing":"No, not recommended for new projects. The package is explicitly marked as no longer supported and inactive, despite recent release dates. The description directs users to Mozilla's documentation, suggesting the project has been superseded or deprecated. Existing projects using it should evaluate migration to actively maintained alternatives."},"id":"marionette-driver","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/marionette-driver","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/marionette-driver.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/marionette-driver/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-20","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"copyleft","name":"marionette-driver","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Marionette Driver"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":171273,"position":10374,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"3.7.1"}
