All the tutorials out there are extremely confusing for a beginner. Instead, this tutorial is really beginner-friendly.

Hey - Firstly, I would like to appreciate the way you have presented and explained the nuances which helped me to get started with my own scrapy project. I am not a developer by profession but still was able to follow along which shows how you made it look easy. However, I stumbled upon on something for quite a long and didn't know to figure out why. The reason was that I was using the same code for scraping dynamic websites. It took a while for me to understand that. If you could make a video on using scrapy + selenium then that would be awesome. Thanks.

These are awesome videos and much better than paid courses from well-known sites. One addition, you might like to add a reference to using "scrapy genspider <spider-name> <website-name> which automatically creates the spider.

Hi, i am getting signature of parse method does not match signature of base method is class ‘Spider’
I used the same def parse(self, response):

How can i resolve this?

[mayankmaloo]

import scrapy could not be resolved pylance error is occuring
What to do ? Any suggestions please what to do

[jollybeck]

You are Rocking !
Make your videos in Pycharm - IntelliJ (Appearance Theme). It will be more clear in low resolutions.

[rizwan]

I’m just curious about the implementation of the spider class.. I’m just wondering how the response argument in parser method got the source of the page? Just wanted to know how this is being implemented ?

[Georgianak]

What about if I want to open an existing project folder in cmd to go to the scrapy shell? These videos are so imformative!! Thank you

Let us say there are 100 request, each requesting 10mb of data that sum ups to around 1gb, so how we can scale it??

[jmoz]

Nice vids. PS. "scrapy" is pronounced SCRAY-PEE, as in to scrape (which is pronounced SCRAYP).

[Sir-Ahmad-Khan]

Also you can auto generate this file by typing the command in terminal: scrapy genspider filename web address
