Quick start

A usage example from the chromium-edge-launcher README.

jsFull README ↗
{
  // (optional) remote debugging port number to use. If provided port is already busy, launch() will reject
  // Default: an available port is autoselected
  port: number;

  // (optional) When `port` is specified *and* no Edge is found at that port,
  // * if `false` (default), chromium-edge-launcher will launch a new Edge with that port.
  // * if `true`, throw an error
  // This option is useful when you wish to explicitly connect to a running Edge, such as on a mobile device via adb
  // Default: false
  portStrictMode: boolean;

  // (optional) Additional flags to pass to Edge, for example: ['--headless', '--disable-gpu']
  // See: https://github.com/cezaraugusto/chromium-edge-launcher/blob/main/docs/edge-flags-for-tools.md
