Description
This comprehensive web scraping course gives you a look at the basics of web scraping and data extraction in just 7 hours. For the uninitiated, web scraping removes the burden of manually copying data from a website and instead provides an automated way to do it. Data extraction is done from websites using some sort of a code written called a “scraper” which takes a Web URL, parses the HTML DOM of that site, and then returns the result which can be saved in some format for future use. These processes are tackled in this 59-lecture course in 3 parts: Setting up the environment, Building Blocks & Syntax, and Projects. This course is built using the easy to understand NodeJS and automation testing tool Selenium so you can get up to speed faster.
