If you do not enable EPEL and if you continue installing chromium as part of <code>npm install</code>, Puppeteer cannot launch Chromium due to unavailablity of <code>libatk-1.0.so.0</code> and many more packages.</p><h2 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="code-transpilation-issues">Code Transpilation Issues<a class="hash-link" href="#code-transpilation-issues" title="Direct link to heading"></a></h2><p>If you are using a JavaScript transpiler like babel or TypeScript, calling <code>evaluate()</code> with an async function might not work. This is because while <code>puppeteer</code> uses <code>Function.prototype.toString()</code> to serialize functions while transpilers could be changing the output code in such a way it&#x27;s incompatible with <code>puppeteer</code>.</p><p>Some workarounds to this problem would be to instruct the transpiler not to mess up with the code, for example, configure TypeScript to use latest ecma version (<code>&quot;target&quot;: &quot;es2018&quot;</code>). Another workaround could be using string templates instead of functions:</p><div class="language-ts codeBlockContainer_Ckt0 theme-code-block"
