The Puppeteer website provides a bunch of examples, such as taking screenshots and generating PDFs of webpages, automating form submission, testing UI, and so on. Most things that you can do in the browser can be automated with Puppeteer. Puppeteer is a Node.js library that provides a high-level API to control a browser (usually Chrome/Chromium, however Puppeteer does support other browsers such a Firefox). One way that we can programmatically control a website is with Puppeteer.
