You'll only need to install puppeteer. puppeteer auto-downloads a version of Chromium that works with it - everything works together out of the box!

So once you've got puppeteer installed, you're already good to go!

See the puppeteer readme for more info:

Thanks @AJC24. But I have one more doubt. After Installing Puppeteer on Server Does it install chromium on Server or Local Machine.

If you've done the installation directly on the server, then the server should have the Chromium installation too.

Then We need not to install chromium on Local Machine right?

Exactly. Everything will run from your server. If you want to run puppeteer on a machine, install puppeteer and then that machine has everything it needs. No need for any additional installations after that. So if you want puppeteer on your server but not your local machine, then you'll only need to install puppeteer on your server. That's it.
