What's the best way to parse HTML/XML with Python lxml? or Python lxml: How do you handle namespaces

Hot take: If you’re just starting out, skip the debate and use `pyquery`. It’s like jQuery for Python—super intuitive and way less verbose than XPath.

But between python lxml and BS4? BS4 for readability, lxml for raw power. Depends on the job!

Also, lxml’s `etree` is *chef’s kiss* for XML validation.
