How to disable CSS in Python selenium using ChromeOptions
To show the page without CSS, to make page loading faster you can disable the Preferences used for storing the default values for the individual content settings using the following solution:
Code Block:
from selenium import webdriveroptions = webdriver.ChromeOptions()prefs = {'profile.default_content_setting_values': {'cookies': 2, 'images': 2, 'javascript': 2, 'plugins': 2, 'popups': 2, 'geolocation': 2, 'notifications': 2, 'auto_select_certificate': 2, 'fullscreen': 2, 'mouselock': 2, 'mixed_script': 2, 'media_stream': 2, 'media_stream_mic': 2, 'media_stream_camera': 2, 'protocol_handlers': 2, 'ppapi_broker': 2, 'automatic_downloads': 2, 'midi_sysex': 2, 'push_messaging': 2, 'ssl_cert_decisions': 2, 'metro_switch_to_desktop': 2, 'protected_media_identifier': 2, 'app_banner': 2, 'site_engagement': 2, 'durable_storage': 2}}options.add_experimental_option('prefs', prefs)options.add_argument("start-maximized")options.add_argument("disable-infobars")options.add_argument("--disable-extensions")driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options, executable_path=r'C:\Utility\BrowserDrivers\chromedriver.exe')driver.get('https://play.google.com/store')
Browser Snapshot:
Unfortunately, it is not possible in Chrome.

Chrome/chromedriver cannot run headless without some virtual screen like Xserver, and it can't not-render the html and css.
