Introduction
The main objective of the Python framework is to automate systematic reviews to save reviewers time without creating
constraints that might affect the review quality. The other objective is to create an open-source and highly
customisable framework with options to use or improve any parts of the framework. python framework supports each step in
the systematic review workflow and suggests using checklists provided by Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews
and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA).
Authors

The packages systematic-reviewpy and
browser-automationpy are part of Research paper
