For newer versions of Node with ES modules enabled (14+)

import chrome from 'selenium-webdriver/chrome.js';

let opts = new chrome.Options();
opts.excludeSwitches('enable-automation'); // disable 'Chrome is being controlled by automation' banner

Sample code for 2024

import {Builder, Capabilities} from 'selenium-webdriver';

const caps = Capabilities.chrome();
caps.set('goog:chromeOptions', {
    'args': ['--headless']
});

const driver =  new Builder()
    .forBrowser('chrome')
    .withCapabilities(caps)
    .build();

(async () => {
    await driver.get('https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/');
    // ...
    await driver.quit();
})();

It was hard to find this gist, thanks!
