the code in the intro is poorly explained and the website it was used one now blocks bots. Also, his teaching style is not very thorough or engaging

helpfull course

By Jean Kobeis on 2/4/2025

Good as a start

By Hamel . on 11/9/2024

The ability to weave theory and practice seamlessly is a craft only a teacher, a good one, possesses. This instructor does that effortlessly. He started out by saying 'I am not a native speaker of English', but his command of the said language is masterful. I am very familiar with the Python language, so having someone who is not only well versed in that language and the Scrapy framework is the ideal combination. Congrats on a REALLY well put together course!

By Timour Nesterov on 4/13/2024

By Kip Malek on 1/15/2024

Been watching a few different videos on this topic. This instructor is the most clear, and most compelling.

By Rivka Levit on 3/14/2023

Very good course! Clear explanations and a lot of practice with many projects to do. Thank you very much!

By Arshpreet Singh on 2/3/2023

Suitable for those who wish to learn scrapy. I give it four stars because this course is better than other courses available. This course will only provide a generic idea how scrapy works, not a advance level course though.
