Does this use scraping? Trying to understand how it works
1 comments

Yes, it uses scraping. The algorithms used are very general in order to make it work on any website.
Yeah it’s interesting that you’ve got it to work on any website… well done
Thank you!
url + xpath works anywhere
Until the path changes...
Yep, that’s a challenge! But the impressiveness is in solving that, not in getting it to work on every website.
