Parsing HTML document with Python and Regular Expressions for web scraping purposes

Hey what's up guys, before anything else I would like to let you know that I'm aware of BeautifulSoup library and Scrapy framework - I have numerous tutorials on these topics located in the corresponding playlists on this channel, so the reason of creating this tutorial is more like for fun rather then for production.

In this video we'll compose a regular expression to parse the HTML document by matching starting tag and the corresponding textual node and then we'll create a python list of dictionaries containing tag's data, e.g. name, attributes, text.

All you need to follow this tutorial is web browser and bare python interactive console!
