In this Web Scraping Python Tutorial, we will learn how to scrape a simple website using the BeautifulSoup library. BeautifulSoup is an awesome library for parsing HTML and getting exactly the data you need. So whether you're pulling down prices, real estate property listings, images, stock prices ... Python with BeautifulSoup will help you.
Other popular libraries used by web scraping developers in python are Scrapy and Selenium, but every library has its own pros and cons. Scrapy is like a spaceship. Beautifulsoup is like a skateboard. If you are a Python beginner, then it wouldn't be right to start with learning how to drive a spaceship. Start with the skateboard first! So that is the reason why we are using Beautifulsoup. Weāll pair BeautifulSoup with the Requests library to fetch weather forecasts from the National Weather Service via HTTP GET requests. You can apply the learned skills while solving freelance web scraping tasks from Upwork.
