I use this technique to build a personal dashboard. Rather than try to scrape data, then come up with a nice presentation for it, I just find a nice representation on the web for the data I want on the dashboard, then use Puppeteer[1] to automatically screenshot the specific DOM element that contains the thing I want. Works like a champ.
