A year or 2 back I was working on making a replit widget...
I failed utterly and gave up.
Now, I thought to myself, let's actually code that.
Problem....
I have no idea how to webscrape, and when I try to, I fail...
I need some help with that part of things.....
I have nothing on my repl currently, but will be adding things.
My current idea is both user widgets (displaying profile, upvotes, and maybe with a "large" URL query (like /?large=true) a list of recent posts or comments (maybe ?large=true&comments=true&posts=false?),
And also a post widget, showing number of comments, author, and things like that.
Hey, I've been doing so much web scraping on Replit recently and would gladly help :)
