Hey! If you're just starting with how to setup web scrapper, I'd say go with BeautifulSoup. It's way simpler than Scrapy for beginners.

Just install it with `pip install beautifulsoup4` and pair it with `requests` to fetch pages.

For avoiding blocks, add delays between requests (like 2-3 secs) and rotate user-agents. Oh, and don’t spam the server—some sites ban IPs fast!

Check out Real Python’s guide on BeautifulSoup, it’s super beginner-friendly.
