If its a framework does it take a little longer to setup/get used to? If so is the learning curve worth it?

- cdr 15y agoI can't make a fair comparison as far as learning curve, but if you're new to scraping Scrapy might in theory be easier. You get a bunch of tools built-in that you don't have to come up with yourself, and you get a pre-defined way of doing things. However, last time I checked the example project in the docs was a little lacking and there's not many good external examples either. I personally really like having the structure of a framework. It lets me churn out simple project from boilerplate very quickly, and it helps keep larger projects organized.
