I'm now trying to understand how experienced developers approach scraping real-world websites that have rate limits, changing page structures, and anti-automation measures. I'm not looking for ways to bypass protections. I'm more interested in the engineering side of things. For someone moving from practice projects to production-grade scraping, what would you recommend learning next? Specifically: • How do you research a website before building a scraper? • What are the biggest mistakes beginners make? • How do you design scrapers that are reliable long-term? • What tools or resources helped you learn crawler architecture, monitoring, data quality, and maintenance? Any advice</p> automation webscraping playwright node Ayush Mon, 02 Mar 2026 03:10:58 +0000 https://dev.to/ayush9364/hi-45n0 https://dev.to/ayush9364/hi-45n0 <p>I built something small.
