What is web scraping?
Data or web scraping is mostly done with Python which is a programming language that allows the programmer to take control over the chrome browser (or it’s HTML) through the terminal in order to take certain actions. These actions can be clicking on elements, typing in input fields, submitting forms and even executing javascript or uploading images. Mostly the data is saved in a CSV or used in other processes. If you are looking for a scraper, we can build you one!
