Hey! For crawling with Python, I’d say start simple with `requests` + `BeautifulSoup`. It’s way easier to grasp the basics before jumping into `Scrapy`.

For dynamic content, try `playwright` or `puppeteer`—lighter than Selenium and works great.

Watch out for rate limits! Use `time.sleep()` to avoid hammering sites. Also, check `robots.txt` to stay polite.

Tutorial-wise, Real Python has a solid guide on crawling with Python. Good luck!
