twitter-scraper

Documentation badge

A port of n0madic/twitter-scraper to Node.js.

Twitter's API is annoying to work with, and has lots of limitations — luckily their frontend (JavaScript) has it's own API, which I reverse-engineered. No API rate limits. No tokens needed. No restrictions. Extremely fast.

You can use this library to get the text of any user's Tweets trivially.

Note that some API operations, such as search, require logging in with a real user account. Refer to the original README for details.
