Scrape any website without code, right from Slack
Hey guys, hope you are doing good , I built a slack app called scrapehoney to solve the following to problems
1.I worked as an intern for a startup they were scraping data. I was using slack as an internal communication tool. they used to switch tabs between slack and the data scraper app, this takes lots of time and makes users uncomfortable.
2. when we were scraping data we used to get lots of useless data along with data that we exactly need.
Using my slack app, user can scrape data from any website without coding all within slack

looking for your feedback guys
- ryan-duve 6y agoThis looks neat. I like that you include a link to a videocast demo because I didn't really get it from the description. I think the demo could be improved by shortening it to under a minute. I think you could also include the target website on the screen so we get an idea of what is being extracted. I notice you're using `@` symbols as delimiters. It seems people who scrape websites would commonly want to scrape email addresses. Does the current delimiter choice allow that? Your website design is nice. Nothing gets in the way and the text is minimal and to the point.
- harishsg 6y agoThanks for your feedback!! Iam using '@@' as delimiters but email address will have only '@'so current delimiter will allow that. Demo:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L1HSWxO-Qd0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L1HSWxO-Qd0 Hope you enjoyed using scrapehoney!!
