Description

I have been successfully able to deploy the app running phantomjs on heroku. However, when I change to slimerjs (in Procfile), everything proceeds normally (no errors during deployment). But the app is not fetching any data. It always gives following error.

 {"error":"Can not capture site screenshot"}

Am I suppose to change anything else?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Compare PhantomJS and SlimerJS configurations on Heroku. Check if SlimerJS requires additional buildpacks or environment variables like DISPLAY or fontconfig. Also verify that the Puppeteer or similar headless browser setup works correctly.
