## Changelog

### v1.1 — 2026-09-27

- Much lighter and faster product loads: images, fonts, styles and trackers are no longer downloaded (they carry no variant data), and a product whose data request AliExpress blocks is abandoned right away instead of waiting out a timeout
- Unavailable variants no longer show AliExpress's placeholder price of 99999; their prices are left empty
- A run that extracts no variants now fails with a clear message instead of finishing "successfully" with an empty dataset

### v1.0 — 2026-08-22

- Initial release
- Extract every SKU variant from an AliExpress product page: color, size, price, stock, and images
- Support for multi-dimension variants (e.g. Color + Size combinations)
- Store details: name, rating, total sales, seller country, top-rated status, store open date
- Shipping details: ships-from country, delivery time range, shipping cost
- Full product specifications and technical properties included on every variant row
- Configurable maximum variants per product
- Automatic retry with a fresh browser session and proxy IP (up to 3 attempts) when a product page is blocked or returns a region-restricted response
