"Has anyone tried Crawlee for web scraping? How does it compare to other tools?"
Yo, so I've been messing around with Crawlee lately for some scraping projects, and I gotta say—it's pretty solid. The setup was smoother than Puppeteer, and it handles JS-heavy sites way better than Scrapy outta the box.
But like, is it *the* best? Dunno. It’s got some cool features (automatic retries, proxy rotation), but the docs could use a bit more love. Also, the community’s smaller, so fewer StackOverflow answers when you’re stuck.
Anyone else used Crawlee for bigger projects? How’d it hold up? Curious if it’s worth ditching my old tools for this.
(Also, why’s it called Crawlee? Sounds like a cute bug, lol.)
