Developer Day: Launch Week III - Day 5

Day 5 of Launch Week III is here — and it’s all about developers. We're rolling out a stack of improvements aimed at making Firecrawl smoother, faster, and better to build with.

👁 Python named params

We've completely overhauled the Python SDK to make development faster, clearer, and more efficient. Here’s what’s new:

• Named parameters and return types for improved readability and type safety
• Full support for async functions to eliminate blocking and improve performance

This update is all about enabling you to build faster and smarter with less friction.

The Rust SDK got a serious set of improvements too:

• Support for batch scraping jobs
• Crawl job cancellation
• Improved error handling
• Built-in support for generating llms.txt
• Search functionality for smarter indexing

If you're building in Rust, these changes open up a lot more flexibility.

We launched our Firecrawl Light Theme on Day 0. Today, we’re releasing the Dark Theme — for those who prefer building in low light.

It’s available now for:

• VSCode
• Windsurf
• Cursor

Download it directly from the VSCode Marketplace and bring Firecrawl’s look and feel to your editor.

We’ve also shipped a number of smaller improvements behind the scenes to streamline developer experience across the board. Includinng now every Firecrawl plan now includes support for up to 20 seats — no more user limits. Bring your team and build together.

That's all for Day 5! Stay tuned for Day 6 🚀
