Hey!

For web scraping in R, rvest is the best for beginners. For dynamic sites, RSelenium is a must.

To avoid getting blocked, use polite and add delays between requests.

For cleaning, dplyr and tidyr are super useful.

Check out [this tutorial](https://www.datacamp.com/)—it’s beginner-friendly and covers everything you need.

Good luck!
