Hello, Today we are going to build a web scraper. Although All of you know the term, I just want to tell you shortly what exactly web scraper?
Web scraping, also known as web harvesting or web data extraction, is a type of data scraping that is used to gather information from websites. Using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol or a web browser, web scraping software can directly access the World Wide Web.
In this project, We are going to use spring boot as a backend service and build a simple UI for the frontend part using HTML and CSS.
We will use the JSOUP library for extracting data from the websites. JSOUP is a Java library that allows you to interact with real-world HTML. It uses the finest of HTML5 DOM techniques and CSS selectors to create a very convenient API for requesting URLs, extracting, and modifying data.
