Overview
Scrapy is an open-source Python framework for web crawling and data extraction. It provides tools for building custom spiders to collect structured data from websites. The framework is designed for scalability, allowing users to organize spiders, settings, items, and pipelines within a project.
Recent updates include "Agent Skills for Scrapy," which enables users to generate production-ready spiders using AI agents like Claude Code or GitHub Copilot. This feature aims to streamline the development process for creating web crawlers.
