+#### REPL support without context managers
+
+For scripting purposes, it is also possible to start and stop Playwright manually without relying on the indentation of the REPL.
+
+```py
+from playwright import sync_playwright
+
+playwright = sync_playwright().get()
+for browser_type in [playwright.chromium, playwright.firefox, playwright.webkit]:
+    browser = browser_type.launch()
+    page = browser.newPage()
+    page.goto("http://whatsmyuseragent.org/")
+    page.screenshot(path=f"example-{browser_type.name}.png")
+    browser.close()
+
+playwright.stop()
+```
