Which Python HTML Parser is the Most Efficient for Web Scraping?

For me, it’s all about lxml. Once you get the hang of XPath, it’s a game-changer.

I’ve tried parsel, and it’s pretty good too, especially if you’re already using Scrapy.

If you’re looking for something super lightweight, html.parser from the standard library is fine for small tasks, but yeah, it’s not great for anything big.
