Struggling with R scraping? Any tips for handling dynamic content and pagination?

Hey! R scraping is tricky, but you’re on the right track with `rvest` and `RSelenium`. For dynamic content, I’d recommend checking out `V8` package—it lets you run JavaScript directly in R, which can help with scraping dynamic elements.

For pagination, I usually use a `while` loop with a condition to stop when there’s no “next” button. Also, make sure to log your progress so you can pick up where you left off if the script breaks.

Good luck!
