Stefan Hyltoft
In this course you will learn how to scrape a websites, with practical examples on real websites using Nodejs Request, Cheerio, NightmareJs and Puppeteer. You will be using the newest JavaScript ES7 syntax with async/await.
You will learn how to scrape a Craigslist website for software engineering jobs, using Nodejs Request and Cheerio. You will be using the newest JavaScript ES7 syntax with async/await.
You will then learn how to scrape more advanced websites that require JavaScript such as iMDB and AirBnB using NighmareJs and Puppeteer.
I’m gong to also show you with a practical real–life website, how you can even avoid wasting time on creating a web scraper in the first place, by reverse engineering websites and finding their hidden API’s!
Learn how to avoid being blocked from websites when developing out your scraper, by building out the scraper in a test–driven way with mocked html, rather than hitting the website every time as you’re debugging and developing it. You’ll also learn what you can do if you’re blocked and your alternatives to get your scraper up and running regardless!
You will also learn how to scrape on a server with a bad connection, or even if you have a bad connection.

This course was very interesting and it helped me practice. I like the fact that Stefan introduces several different tools and uses most of them several times in the course. There are some repetitions though throughout the course, because Stefan is obviously updating his course regularly and some content end up overlaping. The only real downside is that the website used for most of the sections, Craigslits, bans you after your 1st request so you have to spend time finding a way to get around that issue (fortunately, Stefan made a section dedicated to going around that issue).
