Hey! For scraping meaning data, I'd say start simple with Python + BeautifulSoup if the site is static. But if it's JS-heavy, try Selenium or Playwright—they mimic real browsers so you can grab dynamically loaded content.
For anti-scraping, rotate user agents and use proxies. And yeah, cleaning data is a pain—check out pandas for filtering junk or regex for pattern matching.
Also, legality-wise, check the site's robots.txt and terms. Some don't care, others will block you fast.
