No need to download webdriver

See original GitHub issue

I saw you’re using chromedriver manually. You can use the code below which download each time you run the code & will be kept under cache until it expires. You don’t need to manually download chromedriver each time & put it in the folder. You need to install a module for it.

import chromedriver_autoinstaller

opt = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
opt.add_argument("--start-maximized")
chromedriver_autoinstaller.install()
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=opt)

For geckodriver, import & use geckodriver_autoinstaller .
