 class Browser:
-    """Wrapper of the selenium "browser"
-
-    This class contains methods that wrap the Standard Selenium functionality in a convenient way,
-    mitigating known issues and generally improving the developer experience.
-
-    If you want to present more informations (like :py:meth:`product_version` for
-    :py:class:`widgetastic.utils.VersionPick`) to the widgets, subclass this class.
-
-    Many of these "hacks" were developed in period between 2013-2016 in ManageIQ QE functional test
-    suite and are used to date. Those that were generic enough were pulled in here.
-
-    This wrapper is opinionated in some aspects, tries to get out of your way. For example, if you
-    use :py:meth:`element`, and there are two elements of which first is invisible and the second
-    is visible, normal selenium would just return the first one, but this wrapper assumes you want
-    the visible one in case there is more than one element that resolves from given locator.
-
-    Standard Selenium cannot read text that is located under some other element or invisible in some
-    cases. This wrapper assumes that if you cannot scroll the element or you get no text, it shall
-    try getting it via JavaScript, which works always.
-
-    This wrapper also ensures the text that is returned is normalized. When working with this
-    wrapper and using XPath to match text, never use ``.="foo"`` or ``text()="foo"`` but rather use
-    something like this: ``normalize-space(.)="foo"``.
-
-    Standard Selenium has a special method that clicks on an element. It might not work in some
-    cases - eg. when some composed "widgets" make the element that is resolved by the locator
-    somehow hidden behind another. We had these issues so we just replaced the click with a two
-    stage "move & click the mouse", the :py:meth:`click`.
-
-    Moving to an element involves a workaround that tries to mitigate possible browser misbehaviour
-    when scrolling in. Sometimes some browsers complain that it is not possible to scroll to the
-    element but when you engage JavaScript, it works just fine, so this is what this wrapper does
-    too. Also when you accidentally try moving to ``<option>`` tag, it would throw an exception
-    but this wrapper assumes you want the parent ``<select>`` instead.
-
-    :py:meth:`send_keys` automatically detects whether the form item is a file upload and chooses
-    the proper file detector accordingly. That is because the default setting of Selenium uses a
-    file detector, which then can produce some unexpected results. Eg. if your user is called
-    ``admin`` you also have a file called ``admin`` somewhere around and you are testing in a remote
-    browser. That makes selenium upload the file on the remote machine and change the string
-    to reflect the new file name. Then you end up with the login not being ``admin``, but rather
-    something like ``/tmp/someawfulhashadmin`` for obvious reasons that however might not be obvious
-    to the ordinary users of Selenium.
+    """Playwright browser wrapper with enhanced UI testing capabilities.
+
+    This class wraps Playwright's Page functionality while maintaining the proven widgetastic API
+    and incorporating battle-tested improvements developed over years of UI testing experience.
+    It provides intelligent element handling, robust interaction patterns, and comprehensive
+    workarounds for common web testing challenges.
+
+    **Key Improvements Over Standard Playwright:**
+
+    **Smart Element Selection:**
+    When multiple elements match a locator, this wrapper intelligently selects the visible and
+    interactable one rather than just the first match. This solves common issues where the first
+    element might be hidden behind overlays or in collapsed sections.
+
+    **Robust Text Handling:**
+    Unlike standard approaches that might fail with overlaid or dynamically loaded text, this
+    wrapper uses multiple strategies including JavaScript evaluation to reliably extract text
+    content from any element, regardless of CSS styling or positioning.
+
+    **Normalized Text Operations:**
+    All text operations automatically normalize whitespace using XPath's normalize-space logic.
+    When writing XPath expressions, use ``normalize-space(.)="foo"`` patterns for reliable
+    text matching across different browsers and rendering engines.
+
+    **Enhanced Click Operations:**
+    Implements a robust clicking strategy that handles complex UI scenarios like overlays,
+    animations, and dynamically positioned elements. Uses intelligent scrolling and positioning
+    to ensure reliable interactions.
+
+    **Smart Form Handling:**
+    Automatically detects form input types and applies appropriate interaction strategies.
+    Handles file uploads, date pickers, and other specialized input types without manual
+    configuration.
+
+    **Frame Context Management:**
+    Provides seamless iframe handling with automatic context switching and restoration.
+
+    **Network Activity Monitoring:**
+    Integrates page safety checks that wait for network activity to stabilize before
+    proceeding with interactions, reducing flaky tests caused by timing issues.
+
+    **Practical Usage Examples:**
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+
+        # Basic browser setup
+        browser = Browser(playwright_page)
+
+        # Smart element finding - gets visible element even if others exist
+        login_button = browser.element("//button[text()='Login']")
+
+        # Robust clicking with automatic scrolling and overlay handling
+        browser.click("#submit-btn")
+
+        # Text extraction that works with any styling
+        error_message = browser.element(".error").text
+
+        # Form filling with automatic input type detection
+        browser.send_keys("#username", "admin")
+
+        # Iframe handling (TODO: Enhanced support planned)
+        browser.switch_to_frame("//iframe[@name='content']")

+        - **Keyboard Event Simulation**: Uses real keyboard events for text inputs to
+          trigger proper validation and event handlers
+        - **Element Positioning**: Automatically moves to element before typing to ensure
+          proper focus and visibility
+        - **Error Recovery**: Handles cases where elements become detached during typing

+
+    This class creates dynamic strings by substituting parameters from the view's context
+    or attributes. It's particularly useful for creating dynamic locators, messages, or
+    any strings that need to change based on the current view state.
+
+    Key Features:
+    - **Context Resolution**: Access view context data using `{param_name}`
+    - **Attribute Resolution**: Access view attributes using `{@attr_name}`
+    - **Nested Access**: Access nested attributes using `{@parent/child/attr}`
+    - **String Filters**: Apply transformations using pipe operators `{param|filter}`
+    - **Locator Support**: Automatically handles SmartLocator objects
+    - **Descriptor Pattern**: Automatically resolves when accessed on view instances
+
+    Available Filters:
+    - `quote`: XPath-safe quoting for string values
+    - `lower`: Convert to lowercase
+    - `upper`: Convert to uppercase
+    - `title`: Convert to title case
+
+    Template Syntax:
+        - `{param}`: Resolve from view.context['param']
+        - `{@attr}`: Resolve from view.attr
+        - `{@parent/child}`: Resolve from view.parent.child
+        - `{param|filter}`: Apply filter to resolved value

+        class MyView(View):
+            # Simple context parameter
+            title = ParametrizedString("Welcome {username}")

+            safe_xpath = ParametrizedString("//div[@title={@title|quote}]")
 
-        See :py:attr:`OPERATIONS`
+            # Nested attribute access
+            nested_element = ParametrizedString("//span[contains(text(), '{@parent/config/name}')]")
 
-    Sample strings:
+            # Complex template with multiple parameters
+            dynamic_message = ParametrizedString("User {username} has {@item_count} items")
 
-    .. code-block:: python

+
+        # Automatically resolves when accessed
+        locator_string = view.button_locator  # "//button[@id='submit-btn']"
+
+    Advanced Examples:
 
-        "foo"           # No resolution, returns a string
-        "foo-{xyz}"     # if xyz=bar in the view context data, then the result is foo-bar
-        "foo-{@xyz}"    # Same as the preceeding string, just the xyz is looked up as view attribute
-        "//a[@id={@boo|quote}]"  # Same as preceeding, but quote the value per XPath specifications
-        '//a[@id={"vm-{@boo}"|quote}]'  # Same as preceding, use double quotes to use maximum of
-                                        # single level nesting if you need to use the value in

+    .. code-block:: python
 
-    The last example demonstrated is a sort of workaround for the fact there is no suitable XPath
-    processing and manipulating library in Python. It is not recommended to exploit that use case
-    further. If you need more than what the last use case provides, you will be better off creating

+
+    This strategy extends DefaultFillViewStrategy by adding wait functionality
+    before attempting to fill each widget. It's particularly useful for dynamic
+    forms where widgets may appear or become enabled based on previous interactions.
+
+    Key Features:
+    - **Automatic Waiting**: Waits for each widget to be displayed before filling
+    - **Configurable Timeout**: Customizable wait timeout per widget
+    - **Dynamic Content Support**: Handles widgets that appear after user interactions
+    - **Robust Error Handling**: Gracefully handles widgets that never appear
+    - **Performance Optimized**: Uses Playwright's efficient waiting mechanisms
 
-    New widgets may appear after some delay.
-    So such strategy gives next widget some time to turn up.
+    Ideal Use Cases:
+    - **Dynamic Forms**: Forms where fields appear based on selections
+    - **Single Page Applications**: SPAs with asynchronously loaded content
+    - **Conditional Widgets**: Widgets that appear/disappear based on state
+    - **Iframe Content**: Widgets inside frames that may load slowly
