Did you know you could perform web crawling in R using the Rcrawler package?! Web crawling is about indexing and discovering URLs from a page, similar to what a search engine does. My tutorial below walks you through how to use the package: youtu.be/JIRh025E6Dk?...

Thank you for resharing, Lucia! I'm really hoping @hadley.nz and the rest of the awesome developers can release the stable version of this package soon!

I haven’t yet tested this, but this looks very promising. IMHO, Python’s only advantage over R is a better suite of tools for automated data downloading. This could be a game changer.

Big updates with rvest! With the addition of the new function read_html_live, this allows you to perform live web scraping, identical to RSelenium. Although this is still in an experimental phase, this will be a game changer. Link to my YouTube tutorial: www.youtube.com/watch?app=de...

I just uploaded a new YouTube. Install Java with just one line of code. Luckily, the rJavaEnv package, developed by Egor Kotov and Hadley Wickham solves can do just this #rstats Youtube link: youtu.be/5tp5xgOKRVk?...

Want to learn more about how you can automate your web browser for testing and advanced web scraping? Look no further than the #RSelenium package in #rstats. I made a full YouTube tutorial on it: m.youtube.com/watch?v=U1Br...

Thanks for this! As someone who uses RSelenium a lot, I can see how this would be useful
