In this multi-part python tutorial, we will learn how to web scrape with python. In the first three videos, we will be going over the basics of HTML which will make Python web scraping a whole lot easier.
We will also learn css selectors, how to scrape table data with Python requests and beautiful soup. We will also have a couple of examples of real web scraping to reinforce our learnings from the videos.
This mini-series is the first to the much longer "Gentle intro to webscraping" series. This is a python webscraping series for beginners in which we will learn how to scrape data with python.
Please install Beautiful Soup as well as Requests (if you want to
follow along with the code):
pip install requests
pip install beautifulsoup4
We will be using Python 3.XX
Please leave feedback as to what you enjoyed as well as what I can do to improve my series.
Thank you for your support!
