 # Changelog
 
-All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
+## [0.3.74] November 17, 2024
 
-## [Unreleased]
+This changelog details the updates and changes introduced in Crawl4AI version 0.3.74. It's designed to inform developers about new features, modifications to existing components, removals, and other important information.
+
+### 1. File Download Processing
+
+- Users can now specify download folders using the `downloads_path` parameter in the `AsyncWebCrawler` constructor or the `arun` method. If not specified, downloads are saved to a "downloads" folder within the `.crawl4ai` directory.
+- File download tracking is integrated into the `CrawlResult` object.  Successfully downloaded files are listed in the `downloaded_files` attribute, providing their paths.
+- Added `accept_downloads` parameter to the crawler strategies (defaults to `False`). If set to True you can add JS code and `wait_for` parameter for file download.
+
+**Example:**
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+import os
+from pathlib import Path
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler
+
+async def download_example():
+    downloads_path = os.path.join(Path.home(), ".crawl4ai", "downloads")
+    os.makedirs(downloads_path, exist_ok=True)
+
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(
+        accept_downloads=True, 
+        downloads_path=downloads_path, 
+        verbose=True
+    ) as crawler:
+        result = await crawler.arun(
+            url="https://www.python.org/downloads/",
+            js_code="""
+                const downloadLink = document.querySelector('a[href$=".exe"]');
+                if (downloadLink) { downloadLink.click(); }
+            """,
+            wait_for=5 # To ensure download has started
+        )
+
+        if result.downloaded_files:
+            print("Downloaded files:")
+            for file in result.downloaded_files:
+                print(f"- {file}")
+
+asyncio.run(download_example())
+
+```
+
+### 2. Refined Content Filtering
+
+- Introduced the `RelevanceContentFilter` strategy (and its implementation `BM25ContentFilter`) for extracting relevant content from web pages, replacing Fit Markdown and other content cleaning strategy. This new strategy leverages the BM25 algorithm to identify chunks of text relevant to the page's title, description, keywords, or a user-provided query.
+- The `fit_markdown` flag in the content scraper is used to filter content based on title, meta description, and keywords.
+
+**Example:**
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler
+from crawl4ai.content_filter_strategy import BM25ContentFilter
+
+async def filter_content(url, query):
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+        content_filter = BM25ContentFilter(user_query=query)
+        result = await crawler.arun(url=url, extraction_strategy=content_filter, fit_markdown=True)
+        print(result.extracted_content)  # Or result.fit_markdown for the markdown version
+        print(result.fit_html) # Or result.fit_html to show HTML with only the filtered content
+
+asyncio.run(filter_content("https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple", "fruit nutrition health"))
+```
+
+### 3. Raw HTML and Local File Support
+
+- Added support for crawling local files and raw HTML content directly.
+- Use the `file://` prefix for local file paths.
+- Use the `raw:` prefix for raw HTML strings.
+
+**Example:**
+
+```python
+async def crawl_local_or_raw(crawler, content, content_type):
+    prefix = "file://" if content_type == "local" else "raw:"
+    url = f"{prefix}{content}"
+    result = await crawler.arun(url=url)
+    if result.success:
+        print(f"Markdown Content from {content_type.title()} Source:")
+        print(result.markdown)
+
+# Example usage with local file and raw HTML
+async def main():
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+        # Local File
+        await crawl_local_or_raw(
+            crawler, os.path.abspath('tests/async/sample_wikipedia.html'), "local"
+        )
+        # Raw HTML
+        await crawl_raw_html(crawler, "<h1>Raw Test</h1><p>This is raw HTML.</p>")
+        
+
+asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+### 4. Browser Management
+
+- New asynchronous crawler strategy implemented using Playwright.
+- `ManagedBrowser` class introduced for improved browser session handling, offering features like persistent browser sessions between requests (using  `session_id`  parameter) and browser process monitoring.
+- Updated to tf-playwright-stealth for enhanced stealth capabilities.
+- Added `use_managed_browser`, `use_persistent_context`, and `chrome_channel` parameters to AsyncPlaywrightCrawlerStrategy.
+
+
+**Example:**
+```python
+async def browser_management_demo():
+    user_data_dir = os.path.join(Path.home(), ".crawl4ai", "user-data-dir")
+    os.makedirs(user_data_dir, exist_ok=True)  # Ensure directory exists
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(
+        use_managed_browser=True,
+        user_data_dir=user_data_dir,
+        use_persistent_context=True,
+        verbose=True
+    ) as crawler:
+        result1 = await crawler.arun(
+            url="https://example.com", session_id="my_session"
+        )
+        result2 = await crawler.arun(
+            url="https://example.com/anotherpage", session_id="my_session"
+        )
+
+asyncio.run(browser_management_demo())
+```
+
+
+### 5. API Server & Cache Improvements
+
+- Added CORS support to API server.
+- Implemented static file serving.
+- Enhanced root redirect functionality.
+- Cache database updated to store response headers and downloaded files information. It utilizes a file system approach to manage large content efficiently.
+- New, more efficient caching database built using xxhash and file system approach.
+- Introduced `CacheMode` enum (`ENABLED`, `DISABLED`, `READ_ONLY`, `WRITE_ONLY`, `BYPASS`) and `always_bypass_cache` parameter in AsyncWebCrawler for fine-grained cache control. This replaces `bypass_cache`, `no_cache_read`, `no_cache_write`, and `always_by_pass_cache`.
+
+
+### 🗑️ Removals
+
+- Removed deprecated: `crawl4ai/content_cleaning_strategy.py`.
+- Removed internal class ContentCleaningStrategy
+- Removed legacy cache control flags:  `bypass_cache`,  `disable_cache`,  `no_cache_read`,  `no_cache_write`, and `always_by_pass_cache`.  These have been superseded by  `cache_mode`.
+
+
+### ⚙️ Other Changes
+
+- Moved version file to `crawl4ai/__version__.py`.
+- Added `crawl4ai/cache_context.py`.
+- Added `crawl4ai/version_manager.py`.
+- Added `crawl4ai/migrations.py`.
+- Added `crawl4ai-migrate` entry point.
+- Added config `NEED_MIGRATION` and `SHOW_DEPRECATION_WARNINGS`.
+- API server now requires an API token for authentication, configurable with the `CRAWL4AI_API_TOKEN` environment variable.  This enhances API security.
+- Added synchronous crawl endpoint `/crawl_sync` for immediate result retrieval, and direct crawl endpoint `/crawl_direct` bypassing the task queue.
+
+
+### ⚠️ Deprecation Notices
+
+- The synchronous version of `WebCrawler` is being phased out.  While still available via `crawl4ai[sync]`, it will eventually be removed. Transition to `AsyncWebCrawler` is strongly recommended. Boolean cache control flags in `arun` are also deprecated, migrate to using the `cache_mode` parameter.  See examples in the "New Features" section above for correct usage.
+
+
+### 🐛 Bug Fixes
+
+- Resolved issue with browser context closing unexpectedly in Docker. This significantly improves stability, particularly within containerized environments. 
+- Fixed memory leaks associated with incorrect asynchronous cleanup by removing the `__del__` method and ensuring the browser context is closed explicitly using context managers.
+- Improved error handling in `WebScrapingStrategy`. More detailed error messages and suggestions for debugging will minimize frustration when running into unexpected issues.
+- Fixed issue with incorrect text parsing in specific HTML structures.
+
+
+### Example of migrating to the new CacheMode:
+
+**Old way:**
+
+```python
+crawler = AsyncWebCrawler(always_by_pass_cache=True)
+result = await crawler.arun(url="https://example.com", bypass_cache=True)
+```
+
+**New way:**
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import CacheMode
+
+crawler = AsyncWebCrawler(always_bypass_cache=True)
+result = await crawler.arun(url="https://example.com", cache_mode=CacheMode.BYPASS)
+```

+# Mission
+
+![Mission Diagram](./docs/assets/pitch-dark.svg)
+
+### 1. The Data Capitalization Opportunity
+
+We live in an unprecedented era of digital wealth creation. Every day, individuals and enterprises generate massive amounts of valuable digital footprints across various platforms, social media channels, messenger apps, and cloud services. While people can interact with their data within these platforms, there's an immense untapped opportunity to transform this data into true capital assets. Just as physical property became a foundational element of wealth creation, personal and enterprise data has the potential to become a new form of capital on balance sheets.
+
+For individuals, this represents an opportunity to transform their digital activities into valuable assets. For enterprises, their internal communications, team discussions, and collaborative documents contain rich insights that could be structured and valued as intellectual capital. This wealth of information represents an unprecedented opportunity for value creation in the digital age.
+
+### 2. The Potential of Authentic Data
+
+While synthetic data has played a crucial role in AI development, there's an enormous untapped potential in the authentic data generated by individuals and organizations. Every message, document, and interaction contains unique insights and patterns that could enhance AI development. The challenge isn't a lack of data - it's that most authentic human-generated data remains inaccessible for productive use.
+
+By enabling willing participation in data sharing, we can unlock this vast reservoir of authentic human knowledge. This represents an opportunity to enhance AI development with diverse, real-world data that reflects the full spectrum of human experience and knowledge.
+
+## Our Pathway to Data Democracy
+
+### 1. Open-Source Foundation
+
+Our first step is creating an open-source data extraction engine that empowers developers and innovators to build tools for data structuring and organization. This foundation ensures transparency, security, and community-driven development. By making these tools openly available, we enable the technical infrastructure needed for true data ownership and capitalization.
+
+### 2. Data Capitalization Platform
+
+Building on this open-source foundation, we're developing a platform that helps individuals and enterprises transform their digital footprints into structured, valuable assets. This platform will provide the tools and frameworks needed to organize, understand, and value personal and organizational data as true capital assets.
+
+### 3. Creating a Data Marketplace
+
+The final piece is establishing a marketplace where individuals and organizations can willingly share their data assets. This creates opportunities for:
+- Individuals to earn equity, revenue, or other forms of value from their data
+- Enterprises to access diverse, high-quality data for AI development
+- Researchers to work with authentic human-generated data
+- Startups to build innovative solutions using real-world data
+
+## Economic Vision: A Shared Data Economy
+
+We envision a future where data becomes a fundamental asset class in a thriving shared economy. This transformation will democratize AI development by enabling willing participation in data sharing, ensuring that the benefits of AI advancement flow back to data creators. Just as property rights revolutionized economic systems, establishing data as a capital asset will create new opportunities for wealth creation and economic participation.
+
+This shared data economy will:
+- Enable individuals to capitalize on their digital footprints
+- Create new revenue streams for data creators
+- Provide AI developers with access to diverse, authentic data
+- Foster innovation through broader access to real-world data
+- Ensure more equitable distribution of AI's economic benefits
+
+Our vision is to facilitate this transformation from the ground up - starting with open-source tools, progressing to data capitalization platforms, and ultimately creating a thriving marketplace where data becomes a true asset class in a shared economy. This approach ensures that the future of AI is built on a foundation of authentic human knowledge, with benefits flowing back to the individuals and organizations who create and share their valuable data.

-Crawl4AI has one clear task: to simplify crawling and extract useful information from web pages, making it accessible for large language models (LLMs) and AI applications. 🆓🌐
+Crawl4AI simplifies asynchronous web crawling and data extraction, making it accessible for large language models (LLMs) and AI applications. 🆓🌐
 
-[![Open In Colab](https://colab.research.google.com/assets/colab-badge.svg)](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1wz8u30rvbq6Scodye9AGCw8Qg_Z8QGsk)
+## New in 0.3.74 ✨
 
-## Recent Changes
-
-- 🚀 10x faster!!
-- 📜 Execute custom JavaScript before crawling!
-- 🤝 Colab friendly!
-- 📚 Chunking strategies: topic-based, regex, sentence, and more!
-- 🧠 Extraction strategies: cosine clustering, LLM, and more!
-- 🎯 CSS selector support
-- 📝 Pass instructions/keywords to refine extraction
-
-## Power and Simplicity of Crawl4AI 🚀
-
-To show the simplicity take a look at the first example:
-
-```python
-from crawl4ai import WebCrawler
-
-# Create the WebCrawler instance 
-crawler = WebCrawler()
-
-# Run the crawler with keyword filtering and CSS selector
-result = crawler.run(url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business")
-print(result) # {url, html, markdown, extracted_content, metadata}
-```
-
-Now let's try a complex task. Below is an example of how you can execute JavaScript, filter data using keywords, and use a CSS selector to extract specific content—all in one go!
-
-1. Instantiate a WebCrawler object.
-2. Execute custom JavaScript to click a "Load More" button.
-3. Extract semantical chunks of content and filter the data to include only content related to technology.
-4. Use a CSS selector to extract only paragraphs (`<p>` tags).
-
-```python
-# Import necessary modules
-from crawl4ai import WebCrawler
-from crawl4ai.chunking_strategy import *
-from crawl4ai.extraction_strategy import *
-from crawl4ai.crawler_strategy import *
-
-# Define the JavaScript code to click the "Load More" button
-js_code = """
-const loadMoreButton = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('button')).find(button => button.textContent.includes('Load More'));
-loadMoreButton && loadMoreButton.click();
-"""
-
-# Define the crawling strategy
-crawler_strategy = LocalSeleniumCrawlerStrategy(js_code=js_code)
-
-# Create the WebCrawler instance with the defined strategy
-crawler = WebCrawler(crawler_strategy=crawler_strategy)
-
-# Run the crawler with keyword filtering and CSS selector
-result = crawler.run(
-    url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business",
-    extraction_strategy=CosineStrategy(
-        semantic_filter="technology",
-    ),
-)
-
-# Run the crawler with LLM extraction strategy
-result = crawler.run(
-    url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business",
-    extraction_strategy=LLMExtractionStrategy(
-        provider="openai/gpt-4o",
-        api_token=os.getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY'),
-        instruction="Extract only content related to technology"
-    ),
-    css_selector="p"
-)
-
-# Display the extracted result
-print(result)
-```
-
-With Crawl4AI, you can perform advanced web crawling and data extraction tasks with just a few lines of code. This example demonstrates how you can harness the power of Crawl4AI to simplify your workflow and get the data you need efficiently.

-## Installation 💻
+## Installation 🛠️
 
-There are three ways to use Crawl4AI:
-1. As a library (Recommended)
-2. As a local server (Docker) or using the REST API
-4. As a Google Colab notebook. [![Open In Colab](https://colab.research.google.com/assets/colab-badge.svg)](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1wz8u30rvbq6Scodye9AGCw8Qg_Z8QGsk)
+Crawl4AI offers flexible installation options to suit various use cases. You can install it as a Python package or use Docker.
 
-To install Crawl4AI as a library, follow these steps:
+### Using pip 🐍
+
+Choose the installation option that best fits your needs:
+
+#### Basic Installation
+
+For basic web crawling and scraping tasks:
 
-1. Install the package from GitHub:
 ```bash
-virtualenv venv
-source venv/bin/activate
-pip install "crawl4ai[all] @ git+https://github.com/unclecode/crawl4ai.git"
+pip install crawl4ai
 ```
 
-    💡 Better to run the following CLI-command to load the required models. This is optional, but it will boost the performance and speed of the crawler. You need to do this only once.
+By default, this will install the asynchronous version of Crawl4AI, using Playwright for web crawling.
 
-    crawl4ai-download-models
+👉 Note: When you install Crawl4AI, the setup script should automatically install and set up Playwright. However, if you encounter any Playwright-related errors, you can manually install it using one of these methods:
+
+1. Through the command line:
+
+   ```bash
+   playwright install
+   ```
+
+2. If the above doesn't work, try this more specific command:
+
+   ```bash
+   python -m playwright install chromium
+   ```
+
+This second method has proven to be more reliable in some cases.
+
+#### Installation with Synchronous Version
+
+If you need the synchronous version using Selenium:
+
+```bash
+pip install crawl4ai[sync]
+```
+
+#### Development Installation
+
+For contributors who plan to modify the source code:
 
-2. Alternatively, you can clone the repository and install the package locally:
 ```bash
-virtualenv venv
-source venv/bin/activate
 git clone https://github.com/unclecode/crawl4ai.git
 cd crawl4ai
-pip install -e .[all]
+pip install -e .
 ```
 
-3. Use docker to run the local server:
+## One-Click Deployment 🚀
+
+Deploy your own instance of Crawl4AI with one click:
+
+[![DigitalOcean Referral Badge](https://web-platforms.sfo2.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/WWW/Badge%203.svg)](https://www.digitalocean.com/?repo=https://github.com/unclecode/crawl4ai/tree/0.3.74&refcode=a0780f1bdb3d&utm_campaign=Referral_Invite&utm_medium=Referral_Program&utm_source=badge)
+
+> 💡 **Recommended specs**: 4GB RAM minimum. Select "professional-xs" or higher when deploying for stable operation.
+
+The deploy will:
+- Set up a Docker container with Crawl4AI
+- Configure Playwright and all dependencies
+- Start the FastAPI server on port 11235
+- Set up health checks and auto-deployment
+
+### Using Docker 🐳
+
+Crawl4AI is available as Docker images for easy deployment. You can either pull directly from Docker Hub (recommended) or build from the repository.
+
+#### Option 1: Docker Hub (Recommended)
+
 ```bash
-docker build -t crawl4ai .
-# For Mac users
-# docker build --platform linux/amd64 -t crawl4ai .
-docker run -d -p 8000:80 crawl4ai
+# Pull and run from Docker Hub (choose one):
+docker pull unclecode/crawl4ai:basic    # Basic crawling features
+docker pull unclecode/crawl4ai:all      # Full installation (ML, LLM support)
+docker pull unclecode/crawl4ai:gpu      # GPU-enabled version
+
+# Run the container
+docker run -p 11235:11235 unclecode/crawl4ai:basic  # Replace 'basic' with your chosen version
+
+# In case to allocate more shared memory for the container
+docker run --shm-size=2gb -p 11235:11235 unclecode/crawl4ai:basic
 ```
 
-For more information about how to run Crawl4AI as a local server, please refer to the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/unclecode/crawl4ai).
+#### Option 2: Build from Repository
 
-## Using the Local server ot REST API 🌐
+```bash
+# Clone the repository
+git clone https://github.com/unclecode/crawl4ai.git
+cd crawl4ai
 
-You can also use Crawl4AI through the REST API. This method allows you to send HTTP requests to the Crawl4AI server and receive structured data in response. The base URL for the API is `https://crawl4ai.com/crawl`. If you run the local server, you can use `http://localhost:8000/crawl`. (Port is dependent on your docker configuration)
+# Build the image
+docker build -t crawl4ai:local \
+  --build-arg INSTALL_TYPE=basic \  # Options: basic, all
+  .
 
-### Example Usage
+# Run your local build
+docker run -p 11235:11235 crawl4ai:local
+```
 
-To use the REST API, send a POST request to `https://crawl4ai.com/crawl` with the following parameters in the request body.
+Quick test (works for both options):
+```python
+import requests
 
-**Example Request:**
-```json
-{
-    "urls": ["https://www.nbcnews.com/business"],
-    "include_raw_html": false,
-    "bypass_cache": true,
-    "word_count_threshold": 5,
-    "extraction_strategy": "CosineStrategy",
-    "chunking_strategy": "RegexChunking",
-    "css_selector": "p",
-    "verbose": true,
-    "extraction_strategy_args": {
-        "semantic_filter": "finance economy and stock market",
-        "word_count_threshold": 20,
-        "max_dist": 0.2,
-        "linkage_method": "ward",
-        "top_k": 3
-    },
-    "chunking_strategy_args": {
-        "patterns": ["\n\n"]
+# Submit a crawl job
+response = requests.post(
+    "http://localhost:11235/crawl",
+    json={"urls": "https://example.com", "priority": 10}
+)
+task_id = response.json()["task_id"]
+
+# Get results
+result = requests.get(f"http://localhost:11235/task/{task_id}")
+```
+

+
+```python
+import asyncio
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler
+
+async def main():
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(verbose=True) as crawler:
+        js_code = ["const loadMoreButton = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('button')).find(button => button.textContent.includes('Load More')); loadMoreButton && loadMoreButton.click();"]
+        result = await crawler.arun(
+            url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business",
+            js_code=js_code,
+            css_selector=".wide-tease-item__description",
+            bypass_cache=True

+
+### Extracting Structured Data without LLM
+
+The `JsonCssExtractionStrategy` allows for precise extraction of structured data from web pages using CSS selectors.
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+import json
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler
+from crawl4ai.extraction_strategy import JsonCssExtractionStrategy
+
+async def extract_news_teasers():
+    schema = {
+        "name": "News Teaser Extractor",
+        "baseSelector": ".wide-tease-item__wrapper",
+        "fields": [
+            {
+                "name": "category",
+                "selector": ".unibrow span[data-testid='unibrow-text']",
+                "type": "text",
+            },
+            {
+                "name": "headline",

+                "type": "attribute",
+                "attribute": "href",
+            },
+        ],
     }
-}
+
+    extraction_strategy = JsonCssExtractionStrategy(schema, verbose=True)
+
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(verbose=True) as crawler:

-
-## Python Library Usage 🚀
-
-🔥 A great way to try out Crawl4AI is to run `quickstart.py` in the `docs/examples` directory. This script demonstrates how to use Crawl4AI to crawl a website and extract content from it.
-
-### Quickstart Guide
-
-Create an instance of WebCrawler and call the `warmup()` function.
-```python
-crawler = WebCrawler()
-crawler.warmup()
-```
-
-### Understanding 'bypass_cache' and 'include_raw_html' parameters
-
-First crawl (caches the result):
-```python
-result = crawler.run(url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business")
-```
-
-Second crawl (Force to crawl again):
-```python
-result = crawler.run(url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business", bypass_cache=True)
-```
-    💡 Don't forget to set `bypass_cache` to True if you want to try different strategies for the same URL. Otherwise, the cached result will be returned. You can also set `always_by_pass_cache` in constructor to True to always bypass the cache.
-
-Crawl result without raw HTML content:
-```python
-result = crawler.run(url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business", include_raw_html=False)
-```
-
-### Adding a chunking strategy: RegexChunking
-
-Using RegexChunking:
-```python
-result = crawler.run(
-    url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business",
-    chunking_strategy=RegexChunking(patterns=["\n\n"])
-)
-```
-
-Using NlpSentenceChunking:
-```python
-result = crawler.run(
-    url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business",
-    chunking_strategy=NlpSentenceChunking()
-)
-```
-
-### Extraction strategy: CosineStrategy
-
-So far, the extracted content is just the result of chunking. To extract meaningful content, you can use extraction strategies. These strategies cluster consecutive chunks into meaningful blocks, keeping the same order as the text in the HTML. This approach is perfect for use in RAG applications and semantical search queries.
-
-Using CosineStrategy:
-```python
-result = crawler.run(
-    url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business",
-    extraction_strategy=CosineStrategy(
-        semantic_filter="",
-        word_count_threshold=10, 
-        max_dist=0.2, 
-        linkage_method="ward", 
-        top_k=3
-    )
-)
-```
-
-You can set `semantic_filter` to filter relevant documents before clustering. Documents are filtered based on their cosine similarity to the keyword filter embedding. 
+### Extracting Structured Data with OpenAI
 
 ```python
-result = crawler.run(
-    url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business",
-    extraction_strategy=CosineStrategy(
-        semantic_filter="finance economy and stock market",
-        word_count_threshold=10, 
-        max_dist=0.2, 
-        linkage_method="ward", 
-        top_k=3
-    )
-)

+            word_count_threshold=1,
+            extraction_strategy=LLMExtractionStrategy(
+                provider="openai/gpt-4o", api_token=os.getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY'), 
+                schema=OpenAIModelFee.schema(),
+                extraction_type="schema",
+                instruction="""From the crawled content, extract all mentioned model names along with their fees for input and output tokens. 
+                Do not miss any models in the entire content. One extracted model JSON format should look like this: 
+                {"model_name": "GPT-4", "input_fee": "US$10.00 / 1M tokens", "output_fee": "US$30.00 / 1M tokens"}."""

+        )
+        print(result.extracted_content)
+
+if __name__ == "__main__":
+    asyncio.run(main())
 ```
 
-### Using LLMExtractionStrategy
+### Session Management and Dynamic Content Crawling
+
+Crawl4AI excels at handling complex scenarios, such as crawling multiple pages with dynamic content loaded via JavaScript. Here's an example of crawling GitHub commits across multiple pages:
 
-Without instructions:
 ```python
-result = crawler.run(
-    url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business",
-    extraction_strategy=LLMExtractionStrategy(
-        provider="openai/gpt-4o", 
-        api_token=os.getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY')
-    )

-With instructions:
-```python
-result = crawler.run(
-    url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business",
-    extraction_strategy=LLMExtractionStrategy(
-        provider="openai/gpt-4o",
-        api_token=os.getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY'),
-        instruction="I am interested in only financial news"
-    )
-)
+This example demonstrates Crawl4AI's ability to handle complex scenarios where content is loaded asynchronously. It crawls multiple pages of GitHub commits, executing JavaScript to load new content and using custom hooks to ensure data is loaded before proceeding.

+
+
+## Speed Comparison 🚀
+
+Crawl4AI is designed with speed as a primary focus. Our goal is to provide the fastest possible response with high-quality data extraction, minimizing abstractions between the data and the user.
+
+We've conducted a speed comparison between Crawl4AI and Firecrawl, a paid service. The results demonstrate Crawl4AI's superior performance:
+
+```bash
+Firecrawl:
+Time taken: 7.02 seconds
+Content length: 42074 characters
+Images found: 49
+
+Crawl4AI (simple crawl):
+Time taken: 1.60 seconds
+Content length: 18238 characters
+Images found: 49
+
+Crawl4AI (with JavaScript execution):
+Time taken: 4.64 seconds
+Content length: 40869 characters
+Images found: 89
 ```
 
-### Targeted extraction using CSS selector
+As you can see, Crawl4AI outperforms Firecrawl significantly:
 
-Extract only H2 tags:
-```python
-result = crawler.run(
-    url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business",
-    css_selector="h2"
-)

+
+## Cool Examples 🚀
+
+### Quick Start
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import WebCrawler
+
+# Create an instance of WebCrawler
+crawler = WebCrawler()
+
+# Warm up the crawler (load necessary models)
+crawler.warmup()
+
+# Run the crawler on a URL
+result = crawler.run(url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business")
+
+# Print the extracted content
+print(result.markdown)
+```
+
+## How to install 🛠 
+
+### Using pip 🐍
+```bash
+virtualenv venv
+source venv/bin/activate
+pip install "crawl4ai @ git+https://github.com/unclecode/crawl4ai.git"
+```
+
+### Using Docker 🐳
+
+```bash
+# For Mac users (M1/M2)
+# docker build --platform linux/amd64 -t crawl4ai .
+docker build -t crawl4ai .
+docker run -d -p 8000:80 crawl4ai
+```
+
+### Using Docker Hub 🐳
+
+```bash
+docker pull unclecode/crawl4ai:latest
+docker run -d -p 8000:80 unclecode/crawl4ai:latest
+```
+
+
+## Speed-First Design 🚀
+
+Perhaps the most important design principle for this library is speed. We need to ensure it can handle many links and resources in parallel as quickly as possible. By combining this speed with fast LLMs like Groq, the results will be truly amazing.
+
+```python
+import time
+from crawl4ai.web_crawler import WebCrawler
+crawler = WebCrawler()
+crawler.warmup()
+
+start = time.time()
+url = r"https://www.nbcnews.com/business"
+result = crawler.run( url, word_count_threshold=10, bypass_cache=True)
+end = time.time()
+print(f"Time taken: {end - start}")
+```
+
+Let's take a look the calculated time for the above code snippet:
+
+```bash
+[LOG] 🚀 Crawling done, success: True, time taken: 1.3623387813568115 seconds
+[LOG] 🚀 Content extracted, success: True, time taken: 0.05715131759643555 seconds
+[LOG] 🚀 Extraction, time taken: 0.05750393867492676 seconds.
+Time taken: 1.439958095550537
+```
+Fetching the content from the page took 1.3623 seconds, and extracting the content took 0.0575 seconds. 🚀
+
+### Extract Structured Data from Web Pages 📊
+
+Crawl all OpenAI models and their fees from the official page.
+
+```python
+import os
+from crawl4ai import WebCrawler
+from crawl4ai.extraction_strategy import LLMExtractionStrategy
+from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
+
+class OpenAIModelFee(BaseModel):
+    model_name: str = Field(..., description="Name of the OpenAI model.")
+    input_fee: str = Field(..., description="Fee for input token for the OpenAI model.")
+    output_fee: str = Field(..., description="Fee for output token ßfor the OpenAI model.")
+
+url = 'https://openai.com/api/pricing/'
+crawler = WebCrawler()
+crawler.warmup()
+
+result = crawler.run(
+        url=url,
+        word_count_threshold=1,
+        extraction_strategy= LLMExtractionStrategy(
+            provider= "openai/gpt-4o", api_token = os.getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY'), 
+            schema=OpenAIModelFee.schema(),
+            extraction_type="schema",
+            instruction="""From the crawled content, extract all mentioned model names along with their fees for input and output tokens. 
+            Do not miss any models in the entire content. One extracted model JSON format should look like this: 
+            {"model_name": "GPT-4", "input_fee": "US$10.00 / 1M tokens", "output_fee": "US$30.00 / 1M tokens"}."""
+        ),            
+        bypass_cache=True,
+    )
+
+print(result.extracted_content)
+```
+
+### Execute JS, Filter Data with CSS Selector, and Clustering
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import WebCrawler
+from crawl4ai.chunking_strategy import CosineStrategy
+
+js_code = ["const loadMoreButton = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('button')).find(button => button.textContent.includes('Load More')); loadMoreButton && loadMoreButton.click();"]
+
+crawler = WebCrawler()
+crawler.warmup()
+
+result = crawler.run(
+    url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business",
+    js=js_code,
+    css_selector="p",
+    extraction_strategy=CosineStrategy(semantic_filter="technology")
+)
+
+print(result.extracted_content)
+```
+
+### Extract Structured Data from Web Pages With Proxy and BaseUrl
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import WebCrawler
+from crawl4ai.extraction_strategy import LLMExtractionStrategy
+
+def create_crawler():
+    crawler = WebCrawler(verbose=True, proxy="http://127.0.0.1:7890")
+    crawler.warmup()
+    return crawler
+
+crawler = create_crawler()
+
+crawler.warmup()
+
+result = crawler.run(
+    url="https://www.nbcnews.com/business",
+    extraction_strategy=LLMExtractionStrategy(
+        provider="openai/gpt-4o",
+        api_token="sk-",
+        base_url="https://api.openai.com/v1"
+    )
+)
+
+print(result.markdown)

+Crawl4AI is evolving to provide more intelligent, efficient, and versatile web crawling capabilities. This roadmap outlines the key developments and features planned for the project, organized into strategic sections that build upon our current foundation.
+
+## 1. Advanced Crawling Systems 🔧
+
+This section introduces three powerful crawling systems that extend Crawl4AI's capabilities from basic web crawling to intelligent, purpose-driven data extraction.
+
+### 1.1 Question-Based Crawler
+The Question-Based Crawler enhances our core engine by enabling automatic discovery and extraction of relevant web content based on natural language questions.
+
+Key Features:
+- SerpiAPI integration for intelligent web search
+- Relevancy scoring for search results
+- Automatic URL discovery and prioritization
+- Cross-source validation
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler
+from crawl4ai.discovery import QuestionBasedDiscovery
+
+async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+    discovery = QuestionBasedDiscovery(crawler)
+    results = await discovery.arun(
+        question="What are the system requirements for major cloud providers' GPU instances?",
+        max_urls=5,
+        relevance_threshold=0.7
+    )
+

-    "RegexChunking": "### RegexChunking\n\n`RegexChunking` is a text chunking strategy that splits a given text into smaller parts using regular expressions.\nThis is useful for preparing large texts for processing by language models, ensuring they are divided into manageable segments.\n\n#### Constructor Parameters:\n- `patterns` (list, optional): A list of regular expression patterns used to split the text. Default is to split by double newlines (`['\\n\\n']`).\n\n#### Example usage:\n```python\nchunker = RegexChunking(patterns=[r'\\n\\n', r'\\. '])\nchunks = chunker.chunk(\"This is a sample text. It will be split into chunks.\")\n```",

Default is `100`.\n- `step` (int, optional): The number of words to slide the window. Default is `50`.\n\n#### Example usage:\n```python\nchunker = SlidingWindowChunking(window_size=100, step=50)\nchunks = chunker.chunk(\"This is a sample text.

+# Content Processing
+
+Crawl4AI provides powerful content processing capabilities that help you extract clean, relevant content from web pages. This guide covers content cleaning, media handling, link analysis, and metadata extraction.
+
+## Content Cleaning
+
+### Understanding Clean Content
+When crawling web pages, you often encounter a lot of noise - advertisements, navigation menus, footers, popups, and other irrelevant content. Crawl4AI automatically cleans this noise using several approaches:
+
+1. **Basic Cleaning**: Removes unwanted HTML elements and attributes
+2. **Content Relevance**: Identifies and preserves meaningful content blocks
+3. **Layout Analysis**: Understands page structure to identify main content areas
+
+```python
+result = await crawler.arun(
+    url="https://example.com",
+    word_count_threshold=10,        # Remove blocks with fewer words
+    excluded_tags=['form', 'nav'],  # Remove specific HTML tags
+    remove_overlay_elements=True    # Remove popups/modals
+)
+
+# Get clean content
+print(result.cleaned_html)  # Cleaned HTML
+print(result.markdown)      # Clean markdown version
+```
+
+### Fit Markdown: Smart Content Extraction
+One of Crawl4AI's most powerful features is `fit_markdown`. This feature uses advanced heuristics to identify and extract the main content from a webpage while excluding irrelevant elements.
+
+#### How Fit Markdown Works
+- Analyzes content density and distribution
+- Identifies content patterns and structures
+- Removes boilerplate content (headers, footers, sidebars)
+- Preserves the most relevant content blocks
+- Maintains content hierarchy and formatting
+
+#### Perfect For:
+- Blog posts and articles
+- News content
+- Documentation pages
+- Any page with a clear main content area
+
+#### Not Recommended For:
+- E-commerce product listings
+- Search results pages
+- Social media feeds
+- Pages with multiple equal-weight content sections
+
+```python
+result = await crawler.arun(url="https://example.com")
+
+# Get the most relevant content
+main_content = result.fit_markdown
+
+# Compare with regular markdown
+all_content = result.markdown
+
+print(f"Fit Markdown Length: {len(main_content)}")
+print(f"Regular Markdown Length: {len(all_content)}")
+```
+
+#### Example Use Case
+```python
+async def extract_article_content(url: str) -> str:
+    """Extract main article content from a blog or news site."""
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+        result = await crawler.arun(url=url)
+        
+        # fit_markdown will focus on the article content,
+        # excluding navigation, ads, and other distractions
+        return result.fit_markdown
+```
+
+## Media Processing
+
+Crawl4AI provides comprehensive media extraction and analysis capabilities. It automatically detects and processes various types of media elements while maintaining their context and relevance.
+
+### Image Processing
+The library handles various image scenarios, including:
+- Regular images
+- Lazy-loaded images
+- Background images
+- Responsive images
+- Image metadata and context
+
+```python
+result = await crawler.arun(url="https://example.com")
+
+for image in result.media["images"]:
+    # Each image includes rich metadata
+    print(f"Source: {image['src']}")
+    print(f"Alt text: {image['alt']}")
+    print(f"Description: {image['desc']}")
+    print(f"Context: {image['context']}")  # Surrounding text
+    print(f"Relevance score: {image['score']}")  # 0-10 score
+```
+
+### Handling Lazy-Loaded Content
+Crawl4aai already handles lazy loading for media elements. You can also customize the wait time for lazy-loaded content:
+
+```python
+result = await crawler.arun(
+    url="https://example.com",
+    wait_for="css:img[data-src]",  # Wait for lazy images
+    delay_before_return_html=2.0   # Additional wait time
+)
+```
+
+### Video and Audio Content
+The library extracts video and audio elements with their metadata:
+
+```python
+# Process videos
+for video in result.media["videos"]:
+    print(f"Video source: {video['src']}")
+    print(f"Type: {video['type']}")
+    print(f"Duration: {video.get('duration')}")
+    print(f"Thumbnail: {video.get('poster')}")
+
+# Process audio
+for audio in result.media["audios"]:
+    print(f"Audio source: {audio['src']}")
+    print(f"Type: {audio['type']}")
+    print(f"Duration: {audio.get('duration')}")
+```
+
+## Link Analysis
+
+Crawl4AI provides sophisticated link analysis capabilities, helping you understand the relationship between pages and identify important navigation patterns.
+
+### Link Classification
+The library automatically categorizes links into:
+- Internal links (same domain)
+- External links (different domains)
+- Social media links
+- Navigation links
+- Content links
+
+```python
+result = await crawler.arun(url="https://example.com")
+
+# Analyze internal links
+for link in result.links["internal"]:
+    print(f"Internal: {link['href']}")
+    print(f"Link text: {link['text']}")
+    print(f"Context: {link['context']}")  # Surrounding text
+    print(f"Type: {link['type']}")  # nav, content, etc.
+
+# Analyze external links
+for link in result.links["external"]:
+    print(f"External: {link['href']}")
+    print(f"Domain: {link['domain']}")
+    print(f"Type: {link['type']}")
+```
+
+### Smart Link Filtering
+Control which links are included in the results:
+
+```python
+result = await crawler.arun(
+    url="https://example.com",
+    exclude_external_links=True,          # Remove external links
+    exclude_social_media_links=True,      # Remove social media links
+    exclude_social_media_domains=[                # Custom social media domains
+        "facebook.com", "twitter.com", "instagram.com"
+    ],
+    exclude_domains=["ads.example.com"]   # Exclude specific domains
+)
+```
+
+## Metadata Extraction
+
+Crawl4AI automatically extracts and processes page metadata, providing valuable information about the content:
+
+```python
+result = await crawler.arun(url="https://example.com")
+
+metadata = result.metadata
+print(f"Title: {metadata['title']}")
+print(f"Description: {metadata['description']}")
+print(f"Keywords: {metadata['keywords']}")
+print(f"Author: {metadata['author']}")
+print(f"Published Date: {metadata['published_date']}")
+print(f"Modified Date: {metadata['modified_date']}")
+print(f"Language: {metadata['language']}")
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Use Fit Markdown for Articles**
+   ```python
+   # Perfect for blog posts, news articles, documentation
+   content = result.fit_markdown
+   ```
+
+2. **Handle Media Appropriately**
+   ```python
+   # Filter by relevance score
+   relevant_images = [
+       img for img in result.media["images"]
+       if img['score'] > 5
+   ]
+   ```
+
+3. **Combine Link Analysis with Content**
+   ```python
+   # Get content links with context
+   content_links = [
+       link for link in result.links["internal"]
+       if link['type'] == 'content'
+   ]
+   ```
+
+4. **Clean Content with Purpose**
+   ```python
+   # Customize cleaning based on your needs
+   result = await crawler.arun(
+       url=url,
+       word_count_threshold=20,      # Adjust based on content type
+       keep_data_attributes=False,   # Remove data attributes
+       process_iframes=True         # Include iframe content
+   )
+   ```

+# Hooks & Auth for AsyncWebCrawler
+
+Crawl4AI's AsyncWebCrawler allows you to customize the behavior of the web crawler using hooks. Hooks are asynchronous functions that are called at specific points in the crawling process, allowing you to modify the crawler's behavior or perform additional actions. This example demonstrates how to use various hooks to customize the asynchronous crawling process.
+
+## Example: Using Crawler Hooks with AsyncWebCrawler
+
+Let's see how we can customize the AsyncWebCrawler using hooks! In this example, we'll:
+
+1. Configure the browser when it's created.
+2. Add custom headers before navigating to the URL.
+3. Log the current URL after navigation.
+4. Perform actions after JavaScript execution.
+5. Log the length of the HTML before returning it.
+
+### Hook Definitions
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler
+from crawl4ai.async_crawler_strategy import AsyncPlaywrightCrawlerStrategy
+from playwright.async_api import Page, Browser
+
+async def on_browser_created(browser: Browser):
+    print("[HOOK] on_browser_created")
+    # Example customization: set browser viewport size
+    context = await browser.new_context(viewport={'width': 1920, 'height': 1080})
+    page = await context.new_page()
+    
+    # Example customization: logging in to a hypothetical website
+    await page.goto('https://example.com/login')
+    await page.fill('input[name="username"]', 'testuser')
+    await page.fill('input[name="password"]', 'password123')
+    await page.click('button[type="submit"]')
+    await page.wait_for_selector('#welcome')
+    
+    # Add a custom cookie
+    await context.add_cookies([{'name': 'test_cookie', 'value': 'cookie_value', 'url': 'https://example.com'}])
+    
+    await page.close()
+    await context.close()
+
+async def before_goto(page: Page):
+    print("[HOOK] before_goto")
+    # Example customization: add custom headers
+    await page.set_extra_http_headers({'X-Test-Header': 'test'})
+
+async def after_goto(page: Page):
+    print("[HOOK] after_goto")
+    # Example customization: log the URL
+    print(f"Current URL: {page.url}")
+
+async def on_execution_started(page: Page):
+    print("[HOOK] on_execution_started")
+    # Example customization: perform actions after JS execution
+    await page.evaluate("console.log('Custom JS executed')")
+
+async def before_return_html(page: Page, html: str):
+    print("[HOOK] before_return_html")
+    # Example customization: log the HTML length
+    print(f"HTML length: {len(html)}")
+    return page
+```
+
+### Using the Hooks with the AsyncWebCrawler
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler
+from crawl4ai.async_crawler_strategy import AsyncPlaywrightCrawlerStrategy
+
+async def main():
+    print("\n🔗 Using Crawler Hooks: Let's see how we can customize the AsyncWebCrawler using hooks!")
+    
+    crawler_strategy = AsyncPlaywrightCrawlerStrategy(verbose=True)
+    crawler_strategy.set_hook('on_browser_created', on_browser_created)
+    crawler_strategy.set_hook('before_goto', before_goto)
+    crawler_strategy.set_hook('after_goto', after_goto)
+    crawler_strategy.set_hook('on_execution_started', on_execution_started)
+    crawler_strategy.set_hook('before_return_html', before_return_html)
+    
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(verbose=True, crawler_strategy=crawler_strategy) as crawler:
+        result = await crawler.arun(
+            url="https://example.com",
+            js_code="window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight);",
+            wait_for="footer"
+        )
+
+    print("📦 Crawler Hooks result:")
+    print(result)
+
+asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+### Explanation
+
+- `on_browser_created`: This hook is called when the Playwright browser is created. It sets up the browser context, logs in to a website, and adds a custom cookie.
+- `before_goto`: This hook is called right before Playwright navigates to the URL. It adds custom HTTP headers.
+- `after_goto`: This hook is called after Playwright navigates to the URL. It logs the current URL.
+- `on_execution_started`: This hook is called after any custom JavaScript is executed. It performs additional JavaScript actions.
+- `before_return_html`: This hook is called before returning the HTML content. It logs the length of the HTML content.
+
+### Additional Ideas
+
+- **Handling authentication**: Use the `on_browser_created` hook to handle login processes or set authentication tokens.
+- **Dynamic header modification**: Modify headers based on the target URL or other conditions in the `before_goto` hook.
+- **Content verification**: Use the `after_goto` hook to verify that the expected content is present on the page.
+- **Custom JavaScript injection**: Inject and execute custom JavaScript using the `on_execution_started` hook.
+- **Content preprocessing**: Modify or analyze the HTML content in the `before_return_html` hook before it's returned.
+
+By using these hooks, you can customize the behavior of the AsyncWebCrawler to suit your specific needs, including handling authentication, modifying requests, and preprocessing content.

+# Magic Mode & Anti-Bot Protection
+
+Crawl4AI provides powerful anti-detection capabilities, with Magic Mode being the simplest and most comprehensive solution.
+
+## Magic Mode
+
+The easiest way to bypass anti-bot protections:
+
+```python
+async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+    result = await crawler.arun(
+        url="https://example.com",
+        magic=True  # Enables all anti-detection features
+    )
+```
+
+Magic Mode automatically:
+- Masks browser automation signals
+- Simulates human-like behavior
+- Overrides navigator properties
+- Handles cookie consent popups
+- Manages browser fingerprinting
+- Randomizes timing patterns
+
+## Manual Anti-Bot Options
+
+While Magic Mode is recommended, you can also configure individual anti-detection features:
+
+```python
+result = await crawler.arun(
+    url="https://example.com",
+    simulate_user=True,        # Simulate human behavior
+    override_navigator=True    # Mask automation signals
+)
+```
+
+Note: When `magic=True` is used, you don't need to set these individual options.
+
+## Example: Handling Protected Sites
+
+```python
+async def crawl_protected_site(url: str):
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(headless=True) as crawler:
+        result = await crawler.arun(
+            url=url,
+            magic=True,
+            remove_overlay_elements=True,  # Remove popups/modals
+            page_timeout=60000            # Increased timeout for protection checks
+        )
+        
+        return result.markdown if result.success else None

+# Content Filtering in Crawl4AI
+
+This guide explains how to use content filtering strategies in Crawl4AI to extract the most relevant information from crawled web pages.  You'll learn how to use the built-in `BM25ContentFilter` and how to create your own custom content filtering strategies.
+
+## Relevance Content Filter
+
+The `RelevanceContentFilter` is an abstract class that provides a common interface for content filtering strategies. Specific filtering algorithms, like `BM25ContentFilter`, inherit from this class and implement the `filter_content` method. This method takes the HTML content as input and returns a list of filtered text blocks.
+
+## BM25 Algorithm
+
+The `BM25ContentFilter` uses the BM25 algorithm, a ranking function used in information retrieval to estimate the relevance of documents to a given search query. In Crawl4AI, this algorithm helps to identify and extract text chunks that are most relevant to the page's metadata or a user-specified query.
+
+### Usage
+
+To use the `BM25ContentFilter`, initialize it and then pass it as the `extraction_strategy` parameter to the `arun` method of the crawler.
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler
+from crawl4ai.content_filter_strategy import BM25ContentFilter
+
+async def filter_content(url, query=None):
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+        content_filter = BM25ContentFilter(user_query=query)
+        result = await crawler.arun(url=url, extraction_strategy=content_filter, fit_markdown=True) # Set fit_markdown flag to True to trigger BM25 filtering
+        if result.success:
+            print(f"Filtered Content (JSON):\n{result.extracted_content}")
+            print(f"\nFiltered Markdown:\n{result.fit_markdown}") # New field in CrawlResult object
+            print(f"\nFiltered HTML:\n{result.fit_html}") # New field in CrawlResult object. Note that raw HTML may have tags re-organized due to internal parsing.
+        else:
+            print("Error:", result.error_message)
+
+# Example usage:
+asyncio.run(filter_content("https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple", "fruit nutrition health")) # with query
+asyncio.run(filter_content("https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple")) # without query, metadata will be used as the query.
+
+```
+
+### Parameters
+
+- **`user_query`**:  (Optional) A string representing the search query. If not provided, the filter extracts relevant metadata (title, description, keywords) from the page and uses that as the query.
+- **`bm25_threshold`**: (Optional, default 1.0)  A float value that controls the threshold for relevance.  Higher values result in stricter filtering, returning only the most relevant text chunks. Lower values result in more lenient filtering.
+
+
+## Fit Markdown Flag
+
+Setting the `fit_markdown` flag to `True` in the `arun` method activates the BM25 content filtering during the crawl. The `fit_markdown` parameter instructs the scraper to extract and clean the HTML, primarily to prepare for a Large Language Model that cannot process large amounts of data. Setting this flag not only improves the quality of the extracted content but also adds the filtered content to two new attributes in the returned  `CrawlResult` object: `fit_markdown` and `fit_html`.
+
+
+## Custom Content Filtering Strategies
+
+You can create your own custom filtering strategies by inheriting from the `RelevantContentFilter` class and implementing the `filter_content` method.  This allows you to tailor the filtering logic to your specific needs.
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai.content_filter_strategy import RelevantContentFilter
+from bs4 import BeautifulSoup, Tag
+from typing import List
+
+class MyCustomFilter(RelevantContentFilter):
+    def filter_content(self, html: str) -> List[str]:
+        soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
+        # Implement custom filtering logic here
+        # Example: extract all paragraphs within divs with class "article-body"
+        filtered_paragraphs = []
+        for tag in soup.select("div.article-body p"):
+            if isinstance(tag, Tag):
+                filtered_paragraphs.append(str(tag)) # Add the cleaned HTML element.  
+        return filtered_paragraphs
+
+
+
+async def custom_filter_demo(url: str):
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+        custom_filter = MyCustomFilter()
+        result = await crawler.arun(url, extraction_strategy=custom_filter)
+        if result.success:
+            print(result.extracted_content)
+
+```
+
+This example demonstrates extracting paragraphs from a specific div class.  You can customize this logic to implement different filtering strategies, use regular expressions, analyze text density, or apply other relevant techniques.
+
+## Conclusion
+
+Content filtering strategies provide a powerful way to refine the output of your crawls. By using `BM25ContentFilter` or creating custom strategies, you can focus on the most pertinent information and improve the efficiency of your data processing pipeline.

+# Proxy & Security
+
+Configure proxy settings and enhance security features in Crawl4AI for reliable data extraction.
+
+## Basic Proxy Setup
+
+Simple proxy configuration:
+
+```python
+# Using proxy URL
+async with AsyncWebCrawler(
+    proxy="http://proxy.example.com:8080"
+) as crawler:
+    result = await crawler.arun(url="https://example.com")
+
+# Using SOCKS proxy
+async with AsyncWebCrawler(
+    proxy="socks5://proxy.example.com:1080"
+) as crawler:
+    result = await crawler.arun(url="https://example.com")
+```
+
+## Authenticated Proxy
+
+Use proxy with authentication:
+
+```python
+proxy_config = {
+    "server": "http://proxy.example.com:8080",
+    "username": "user",
+    "password": "pass"
+}
+
+async with AsyncWebCrawler(proxy_config=proxy_config) as crawler:
+    result = await crawler.arun(url="https://example.com")
+```
+
+## Rotating Proxies
+
+Example using a proxy rotation service:
+
+```python
+async def get_next_proxy():
+    # Your proxy rotation logic here
+    return {"server": "http://next.proxy.com:8080"}
+
+async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+    # Update proxy for each request
+    for url in urls:
+        proxy = await get_next_proxy()
+        crawler.update_proxy(proxy)
+        result = await crawler.arun(url=url)
+```
+
+## Custom Headers
+
+Add security-related headers:
+
+```python
+headers = {
+    "X-Forwarded-For": "203.0.113.195",
+    "Accept-Language": "en-US,en;q=0.9",
+    "Cache-Control": "no-cache",
+    "Pragma": "no-cache"
+}
+
+async with AsyncWebCrawler(headers=headers) as crawler:
+    result = await crawler.arun(url="https://example.com")
+```
+
+## Combining with Magic Mode
+
+For maximum protection, combine proxy with Magic Mode:
+
+```python
+async with AsyncWebCrawler(
+    proxy="http://proxy.example.com:8080",
+    headers={"Accept-Language": "en-US"}
+) as crawler:
+    result = await crawler.arun(
+        url="https://example.com",
+        magic=True  # Enable all anti-detection features
+    )
+```

+# Session-Based Crawling for Dynamic Content
+
+In modern web applications, content is often loaded dynamically without changing the URL. Examples include "Load More" buttons, infinite scrolling, or paginated content that updates via JavaScript. To effectively crawl such websites, Crawl4AI provides powerful session-based crawling capabilities.
+
+This guide will explore advanced techniques for crawling dynamic content using Crawl4AI's session management features.
+
+## Understanding Session-Based Crawling
+
+Session-based crawling allows you to maintain a persistent browser session across multiple requests. This is crucial when:
+
+1. The content changes dynamically without URL changes
+2. You need to interact with the page (e.g., clicking buttons) between requests
+3. The site requires authentication or maintains state across pages
+
+Crawl4AI's `AsyncWebCrawler` class supports session-based crawling through the `session_id` parameter and related methods.
+
+## Basic Concepts
+
+Before diving into examples, let's review some key concepts:
+
+- **Session ID**: A unique identifier for a browsing session. Use the same `session_id` across multiple `arun` calls to maintain state.
+- **JavaScript Execution**: Use the `js_code` parameter to execute JavaScript on the page, such as clicking a "Load More" button.
+- **CSS Selectors**: Use these to target specific elements for extraction or interaction.
+- **Extraction Strategy**: Define how to extract structured data from the page.
+- **Wait Conditions**: Specify conditions to wait for before considering the page loaded.
+
+## Example 1: Basic Session-Based Crawling
+
+Let's start with a basic example of session-based crawling:
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler, CacheMode
+
+async def basic_session_crawl():
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(verbose=True) as crawler:
+        session_id = "my_session"
+        url = "https://example.com/dynamic-content"
+
+        for page in range(3):
+            result = await crawler.arun(
+                url=url,
+                session_id=session_id,
+                js_code="document.querySelector('.load-more-button').click();" if page > 0 else None,
+                css_selector=".content-item",
+                cache_mode=CacheMode.BYPASS
+            )
+            
+            print(f"Page {page + 1}: Found {result.extracted_content.count('.content-item')} items")
+
+        await crawler.crawler_strategy.kill_session(session_id)
+
+asyncio.run(basic_session_crawl())
+```
+
+This example demonstrates:
+1. Using a consistent `session_id` across multiple `arun` calls
+2. Executing JavaScript to load more content after the first page
+3. Using a CSS selector to extract specific content
+4. Properly closing the session after crawling
+
+## Advanced Technique 1: Custom Execution Hooks
+
+Crawl4AI allows you to set custom hooks that execute at different stages of the crawling process. This is particularly useful for handling complex loading scenarios.
+
+Here's an example that waits for new content to appear before proceeding:
+
+```python
+async def advanced_session_crawl_with_hooks():
+    first_commit = ""
+
+    async def on_execution_started(page):
+        nonlocal first_commit
+        try:
+            while True:
+                await page.wait_for_selector("li.commit-item h4")
+                commit = await page.query_selector("li.commit-item h4")
+                commit = await commit.evaluate("(element) => element.textContent")
+                commit = commit.strip()
+                if commit and commit != first_commit:
+                    first_commit = commit
+                    break
+                await asyncio.sleep(0.5)
+        except Exception as e:
+            print(f"Warning: New content didn't appear after JavaScript execution: {e}")
+
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(verbose=True) as crawler:
+        crawler.crawler_strategy.set_hook("on_execution_started", on_execution_started)
+
+        url = "https://github.com/example/repo/commits/main"
+        session_id = "commit_session"
+        all_commits = []
+
+        js_next_page = """
+        const button = document.querySelector('a.pagination-next');
+        if (button) button.click();
+        """
+
+        for page in range(3):
+            result = await crawler.arun(
+                url=url,
+                session_id=session_id,
+                css_selector="li.commit-item",
+                js_code=js_next_page if page > 0 else None,
+                cache_mode=CacheMode.BYPASS,
+                js_only=page > 0
+            )
+
+            commits = result.extracted_content.select("li.commit-item")
+            all_commits.extend(commits)
+            print(f"Page {page + 1}: Found {len(commits)} commits")
+
+        await crawler.crawler_strategy.kill_session(session_id)
+        print(f"Successfully crawled {len(all_commits)} commits across 3 pages")
+
+asyncio.run(advanced_session_crawl_with_hooks())
+```
+
+This technique uses a custom `on_execution_started` hook to ensure new content has loaded before proceeding to the next step.
+
+## Advanced Technique 2: Integrated JavaScript Execution and Waiting
+
+Instead of using separate hooks, you can integrate the waiting logic directly into your JavaScript execution. This approach can be more concise and easier to manage for some scenarios.
+
+Here's an example:
+
+```python
+async def integrated_js_and_wait_crawl():
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(verbose=True) as crawler:
+        url = "https://github.com/example/repo/commits/main"
+        session_id = "integrated_session"
+        all_commits = []

+
+This approach combines the JavaScript for clicking the "next" button and waiting for new content to load into a single script.
+
+## Advanced Technique 3: Using the `wait_for` Parameter
+
+Crawl4AI provides a `wait_for` parameter that allows you to specify a condition to wait for before considering the page fully loaded. This can be particularly useful for dynamic content.
+
+Here's an example:
+
+```python
+async def wait_for_parameter_crawl():
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(verbose=True) as crawler:
+        url = "https://github.com/example/repo/commits/main"
+        session_id = "wait_for_session"
+        all_commits = []
+
+        js_next_page = """
+        const commits = document.querySelectorAll('li.commit-item h4');
+        if (commits.length > 0) {
+            window.lastCommit = commits[0].textContent.trim();
+        }
+        const button = document.querySelector('a.pagination-next');
+        if (button) button.click();
+        """
+
+        wait_for = """() => {
+            const commits = document.querySelectorAll('li.commit-item h4');
+            if (commits.length === 0) return false;
+            const firstCommit = commits[0].textContent.trim();
+            return firstCommit !== window.lastCommit;
+        }"""
+        
+        schema = {
+            "name": "Commit Extractor",
+            "baseSelector": "li.commit-item",
+            "fields": [
+                {
+                    "name": "title",
+                    "selector": "h4.commit-title",
+                    "type": "text",
+                    "transform": "strip",
+                },
+            ],
+        }
+        extraction_strategy = JsonCssExtractionStrategy(schema, verbose=True)
+
+        for page in range(3):
+            result = await crawler.arun(
+                url=url,
+                session_id=session_id,
+                css_selector="li.commit-item",
+                extraction_strategy=extraction_strategy,
+                js_code=js_next_page if page > 0 else None,
+                wait_for=wait_for if page > 0 else None,
+                js_only=page > 0,
+                cache_mode=CacheMode.BYPASS
+            )
+
+            commits = json.loads(result.extracted_content)
+            all_commits.extend(commits)
+            print(f"Page {page + 1}: Found {len(commits)} commits")
+
+        await crawler.crawler_strategy.kill_session(session_id)
+        print(f"Successfully crawled {len(all_commits)} commits across 3 pages")
+
+asyncio.run(wait_for_parameter_crawl())
+```
+
+This technique separates the JavaScript execution (clicking the "next" button) from the waiting condition, providing more flexibility and clarity in some scenarios.
+
+## Best Practices for Session-Based Crawling
+
+1. **Use Unique Session IDs**: Ensure each crawling session has a unique `session_id` to prevent conflicts.
+2. **Close Sessions**: Always close sessions using `kill_session` when you're done to free up resources.
+3. **Handle Errors**: Implement proper error handling to deal with unexpected situations during crawling.
+4. **Respect Website Terms**: Ensure your crawling adheres to the website's terms of service and robots.txt file.
+5. **Implement Delays**: Add appropriate delays between requests to avoid overwhelming the target server.
+6. **Use Extraction Strategies**: Leverage `JsonCssExtractionStrategy` or other extraction strategies for structured data extraction.
+7. **Optimize JavaScript**: Keep your JavaScript execution concise and efficient to improve crawling speed.
+8. **Monitor Performance**: Keep an eye on memory usage and crawling speed, especially for long-running sessions.
+

+# Session Management
+
+Session management in Crawl4AI allows you to maintain state across multiple requests and handle complex multi-page crawling tasks, particularly useful for dynamic websites.
+
+## Basic Session Usage
+
+Use `session_id` to maintain state between requests:
+
+```python
+async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+    session_id = "my_session"
+    
+    # First request
+    result1 = await crawler.arun(
+        url="https://example.com/page1",
+        session_id=session_id
+    )
+    
+    # Subsequent request using same session
+    result2 = await crawler.arun(
+        url="https://example.com/page2",
+        session_id=session_id
+    )
+    
+    # Clean up when done
+    await crawler.crawler_strategy.kill_session(session_id)
+```
+
+## Dynamic Content with Sessions
+
+Here's a real-world example of crawling GitHub commits across multiple pages:
+
+```python
+async def crawl_dynamic_content():
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler(verbose=True) as crawler:
+        url = "https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/commits/main"
+        session_id = "typescript_commits_session"
+        all_commits = []
+
+        # Define navigation JavaScript
+        js_next_page = """
+        const button = document.querySelector('a[data-testid="pagination-next-button"]');
+        if (button) button.click();
+        """
+
+        # Define wait condition
+        wait_for = """() => {
+            const commits = document.querySelectorAll('li.Box-sc-g0xbh4-0 h4');
+            if (commits.length === 0) return false;
+            const firstCommit = commits[0].textContent.trim();
+            return firstCommit !== window.firstCommit;
+        }"""
+        
+        # Define extraction schema
+        schema = {
+            "name": "Commit Extractor",
+            "baseSelector": "li.Box-sc-g0xbh4-0",
+            "fields": [
+                {
+                    "name": "title",
+                    "selector": "h4.markdown-title",
+                    "type": "text",
+                    "transform": "strip",
+                },
+            ],
+        }
+        extraction_strategy = JsonCssExtractionStrategy(schema)
+
+        # Crawl multiple pages
+        for page in range(3):
+            result = await crawler.arun(
+                url=url,
+                session_id=session_id,
+                extraction_strategy=extraction_strategy,
+                js_code=js_next_page if page > 0 else None,
+                wait_for=wait_for if page > 0 else None,
+                js_only=page > 0,
+                cache_mode=CacheMode.BYPASS
+            )
+
+            if result.success:
+                commits = json.loads(result.extracted_content)
+                all_commits.extend(commits)
+                print(f"Page {page + 1}: Found {len(commits)} commits")
+
+        # Clean up session
+        await crawler.crawler_strategy.kill_session(session_id)
+        return all_commits
+```
+
+## Session Best Practices
+
+1. **Session Naming**:
+```python
+# Use descriptive session IDs
+session_id = "login_flow_session"
+session_id = "product_catalog_session"
+```
+
+2. **Resource Management**:
+```python
+try:
+    # Your crawling code
+    pass
+finally:
+    # Always clean up sessions
+    await crawler.crawler_strategy.kill_session(session_id)
+```
+
+3. **State Management**:
+```python
+# First page: login
+result = await crawler.arun(
+    url="https://example.com/login",
+    session_id=session_id,
+    js_code="document.querySelector('form').submit();"
+)
+
+# Second page: verify login success
+result = await crawler.arun(
+    url="https://example.com/dashboard",
+    session_id=session_id,
+    wait_for="css:.user-profile"  # Wait for authenticated content
+)
+```
+
+## Common Use Cases
+
+1. **Authentication Flows**
+2. **Pagination Handling**
+3. **Form Submissions**
+4. **Multi-step Processes**
+5. **Dynamic Content Navigation**

+
+### Usage Examples
+
+#### Basic Crawling
+```python
+async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+    result = await crawler.arun(url="https://example.com")
+```
+
+#### Advanced Crawling
+```python
+async with AsyncWebCrawler(
+    browser_type="firefox",
+    verbose=True,
+    headers={"Custom-Header": "Value"}
+) as crawler:
+    result = await crawler.arun(
+        url="https://example.com",
+        css_selector=".main-content",
+        word_count_threshold=20,
+        process_iframes=True,
+        magic=True,
+        wait_for="css:.dynamic-content",
+        screenshot=True
+    )
+```
+
+#### Session Management
+```python
+async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+    # First request
+    result1 = await crawler.arun(
+        url="https://example.com/login",
+        session_id="my_session"
+    )
+    
+    # Subsequent request using same session
+    result2 = await crawler.arun(
+        url="https://example.com/protected",
+        session_id="my_session"
+    )
+```
+
+## Context Manager
+
+AsyncWebCrawler implements the async context manager protocol:
+
+```python
+async def __aenter__(self) -> 'AsyncWebCrawler':
+    # Initialize browser and resources
+    return self
+
+async def __aexit__(self, *args):
+    # Cleanup resources
+    pass
+```
+
+Always use AsyncWebCrawler with async context manager:
+```python
+async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+    # Your crawling code here
+    pass
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Resource Management**
+```python
+# Always use context manager
+async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+    # Crawler will be properly cleaned up
+    pass
+```
+
+2. **Error Handling**
+```python
+try:
+    async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
+        result = await crawler.arun(url="https://example.com")
+        if not result.success:
+            print(f"Crawl failed: {result.error_message}")
+except Exception as e:
+    print(f"Error: {str(e)}")
+```
+
+3. **Performance Optimization**
+```python
+# Enable caching for better performance
+crawler = AsyncWebCrawler(
+    always_by_pass_cache=False,
+    verbose=True
+)
+```
+
+4. **Anti-Detection**
+```python
+# Maximum stealth
+crawler = AsyncWebCrawler(
+    headless=True,
+    user_agent="Mozilla/5.0...",
+    headers={"Accept-Language": "en-US"}
+)
+result = await crawler.arun(
+    url="https://example.com",
+    magic=True,
+    simulate_user=True
+)
+```
+
+## Note on Browser Types
+
+Each browser type has its characteristics:
+
+- **chromium**: Best overall compatibility
+- **firefox**: Good for specific use cases
+- **webkit**: Lighter weight, good for basic crawling
+
+Choose based on your specific needs:
+```python
+# High compatibility
+crawler = AsyncWebCrawler(browser_type="chromium")
+
+# Memory efficient
+crawler = AsyncWebCrawler(browser_type="webkit")
+```

+            if not result.success:
+                return {
+                    "success": False,
+                    "error": result.error_message,
+                    "status": result.status_code
+                }
+            
+            return {
+                "success": True,
+                "content": result.fit_markdown,
+                "status": result.status_code
+            }
+            
+        except Exception as e:
+            return {
+                "success": False,
+                "error": str(e),
+                "status": None
+            }
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Always Check Success**
+```python
+if not result.success:
+    print(f"Error: {result.error_message}")
+    return
+```
+
+2. **Use fit_markdown for Articles**
+```python
+# Better for article content
+content = result.fit_markdown if result.fit_markdown else result.markdown
+```
+
+3. **Filter Media by Score**
+```python
+relevant_images = [
+    img for img in result.media["images"]
+    if img["score"] > 5
+]
+```
+
+4. **Handle Missing Data**
+```python
+metadata = result.metadata or {}
+title = metadata.get('title', 'Unknown Title')
+```

+# Extraction & Chunking Strategies API
+
+This documentation covers the API reference for extraction and chunking strategies in Crawl4AI.
+
+## Extraction Strategies
+
+All extraction strategies inherit from the base `ExtractionStrategy` class and implement two key methods:
+- `extract(url: str, html: str) -> List[Dict[str, Any]]`
+- `run(url: str, sections: List[str]) -> List[Dict[str, Any]]`
+
+### LLMExtractionStrategy
+
+Used for extracting structured data using Language Models.
+
+```python
+LLMExtractionStrategy(
+    # Required Parameters
+    provider: str = DEFAULT_PROVIDER,     # LLM provider (e.g., "ollama/llama2")
+    api_token: Optional[str] = None,      # API token
+    
+    # Extraction Configuration
+    instruction: str = None,              # Custom extraction instruction
+    schema: Dict = None,                  # Pydantic model schema for structured data
+    extraction_type: str = "block",       # "block" or "schema"
+    
+    # Chunking Parameters
+    chunk_token_threshold: int = 4000,    # Maximum tokens per chunk
+    overlap_rate: float = 0.1,           # Overlap between chunks
+    word_token_rate: float = 0.75,       # Word to token conversion rate
+    apply_chunking: bool = True,         # Enable/disable chunking
+    
+    # API Configuration
+    base_url: str = None,                # Base URL for API
+    extra_args: Dict = {},               # Additional provider arguments
+    verbose: bool = False                # Enable verbose logging
+)
+```
+
+### CosineStrategy
+
+Used for content similarity-based extraction and clustering.
+
+```python
+CosineStrategy(
+    # Content Filtering
+    semantic_filter: str = None,        # Topic/keyword filter
+    word_count_threshold: int = 10,     # Minimum words per cluster
+    sim_threshold: float = 0.3,         # Similarity threshold
+    
+    # Clustering Parameters
+    max_dist: float = 0.2,             # Maximum cluster distance
+    linkage_method: str = 'ward',       # Clustering method
+    top_k: int = 3,                    # Top clusters to return
+    
+    # Model Configuration
+    model_name: str = 'sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2',  # Embedding model
+    
+    verbose: bool = False              # Enable verbose logging
+)
+```
+
+### JsonCssExtractionStrategy
+
+Used for CSS selector-based structured data extraction.
+
+```python
+JsonCssExtractionStrategy(
+    schema: Dict[str, Any],    # Extraction schema
+    verbose: bool = False      # Enable verbose logging
+)
+
+# Schema Structure
+schema = {
+    "name": str,              # Schema name
+    "baseSelector": str,      # Base CSS selector
+    "fields": [               # List of fields to extract
+        {
+            "name": str,      # Field name
+            "selector": str,  # CSS selector
+            "type": str,     # Field type: "text", "attribute", "html", "regex"
+            "attribute": str, # For type="attribute"
+            "pattern": str,  # For type="regex"
+            "transform": str, # Optional: "lowercase", "uppercase", "strip"
+            "default": Any    # Default value if extraction fails
+        }
+    ]
+}
+```
+
+## Chunking Strategies
+
+All chunking strategies inherit from `ChunkingStrategy` and implement the `chunk(text: str) -> list` method.
+
+### RegexChunking
+
+Splits text based on regex patterns.
+
+```python
+RegexChunking(
+    patterns: List[str] = None  # Regex patterns for splitting
+                               # Default: [r'\n\n']
+)
+```
+
+### SlidingWindowChunking
+
+Creates overlapping chunks with a sliding window approach.
+
+```python
+SlidingWindowChunking(
+    window_size: int = 100,    # Window size in words
+    step: int = 50             # Step size between windows
+)
+```
+
+### OverlappingWindowChunking
+
+Creates chunks with specified overlap.
+
+```python
+OverlappingWindowChunking(
+    window_size: int = 1000,   # Chunk size in words
+    overlap: int = 100         # Overlap size in words
+)
+```
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### LLM Extraction
+
+```python
+from pydantic import BaseModel
+from crawl4ai.extraction_strategy import LLMExtractionStrategy
+
+# Define schema
+class Article(BaseModel):
+    title: str
+    content: str
+    author: str
+
+# Create strategy
+strategy = LLMExtractionStrategy(
+    provider="ollama/llama2",
+    schema=Article.schema(),
+    instruction="Extract article details"
+)
+
+# Use with crawler
+result = await crawler.arun(
+    url="https://example.com/article",
+    extraction_strategy=strategy
+)
+
+# Access extracted data
+data = json.loads(result.extracted_content)
+```
+
+### CSS Extraction
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai.extraction_strategy import JsonCssExtractionStrategy
+
+# Define schema
+schema = {
+    "name": "Product List",
+    "baseSelector": ".product-card",
+    "fields": [
+        {
+            "name": "title",
+            "selector": "h2.title",
+            "type": "text"
+        },
+        {
+            "name": "price",
+            "selector": ".price",
+            "type": "text",
+            "transform": "strip"
+        },
+        {
+            "name": "image",
+            "selector": "img",
+            "type": "attribute",
+            "attribute": "src"
+        }
+    ]
+}
+
+# Create and use strategy
+strategy = JsonCssExtractionStrategy(schema)
+result = await crawler.arun(
+    url="https://example.com/products",
+    extraction_strategy=strategy
+)
+```
+
+### Content Chunking
+
+```python
+from crawl4ai.chunking_strategy import OverlappingWindowChunking
+
+# Create chunking strategy
+chunker = OverlappingWindowChunking(
+    window_size=500,  # 500 words per chunk
+    overlap=50        # 50 words overlap
+)
+
+# Use with extraction strategy
+strategy = LLMExtractionStrategy(
+    provider="ollama/llama2",
+    chunking_strategy=chunker
+)
+
+result = await crawler.arun(
+    url="https://example.com/long-article",
+    extraction_strategy=strategy
+)
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Choose the Right Strategy**
+   - Use `LLMExtractionStrategy` for complex, unstructured content
+   - Use `JsonCssExtractionStrategy` for well-structured HTML
+   - Use `CosineStrategy` for content similarity and clustering
+
+2. **Optimize Chunking**
+   ```python
+   # For long documents
+   strategy = LLMExtractionStrategy(
+       chunk_token_threshold=2000,  # Smaller chunks
+       overlap_rate=0.1           # 10% overlap
+   )
+   ```
+
+3. **Handle Errors**
+   ```python
+   try:
+       result = await crawler.arun(
+           url="https://example.com",
+           extraction_strategy=strategy
+       )
+       if result.success:
+           content = json.loads(result.extracted_content)
+   except Exception as e:
+       print(f"Extraction failed: {e}")
+   ```
+
+4. **Monitor Performance**
+   ```python
+   strategy = CosineStrategy(
+       verbose=True,  # Enable logging
+       word_count_threshold=20,  # Filter short content
+       top_k=5  # Limit results
+   )
+   ```
