Curious how to turn any website into instant, human-readable data inside your app—without building an API, custom pipelines, or writing manual parsers? Here’s how I did exactly that to create a dynamic space launch schedule viewer.

🛰️ What’s the Use Case?
I wanted to fetch the latest space launch listings from Spaceflight Now’s launch schedule, which lists upcoming launches worldwide. No API exists for this. Instead of scraping or manual parsing, this approach uses only the website URL and a smart prompt.
⚡️ How It Works
- Just supply the URL and prompt to the agent.
- Use the
http_requesttool from Strands Agent SDK. - Let the agent extract, parse, and format the content for you.
- Display results in a clean, readable way—no complex coding required!
It’s literally real-time data from a website, using just a prompt and a tool invocation.

🚦 Try It Yourself
- Check out the repo: https://github.com/r123singh/strands-weather-agent
- Launch the app:
npm start
- Open localhost:3000/spacegeek, click the button, and see the space launch schedule appear—fully parsed and formatted in real time.
Let the agent do the heavy lifting—power your projects with dynamic, up-to-the-minute data!
