Learn to scrape web data using Node.js with Request and Cheerio. Build web apps to display scraped data effectively.
This course is all about web scraping using Node! You'll dive into Request for downloading pages and Cheerio to extract data using a fun, jQuery-like syntax. Plus, you’ll build cool web apps to show off your scraped content. Super simple and beginner-friendly!
Use the Node modules Request and Cheerio to scrape data and display on a web page.
In this course you will learn how to scrape data from web pages using the Request and Cheerio node modules.We'll begin with an overview of how Request works to download pages and pipe out data.
Next, we'll look at the Cheerio and how we can use jQuery-like syntax to retrieve elements off a page.
Then we'll take what you've learned to create 2 sample web apps to scrape and display data first to our console then to a web page.
What You Will Learn:
- How to download web pages using Request.
- How to then grab elements from the page using Cheerio
- Display the data on a web page. First, we'll use Express and Swig to display Indeed job search data. Then we'll use Angular to show an image and other details after a user inputs a URL.
Who This Course is For:
- Anyone with an interest in web scraping using Node. This is a beginner level course, so the only requirement is that you already have node.js installed.

great basic course for scaping web with node js
Nachvollziehbar, kleinschrittig erklärt
Very interesting method, thanks
This is my first course on web scraping. It is easy to follow with full of examples. It helps scrap data from multiple xmls, and htmls instantly. I wish I took it earlier!
very nice :)
The course was good, certainly worth the investment.
It is a good match. I am looking for an easy way to explicitly do web scraping and have full control over search of elements and the eventually needed string manipulation. With jQuery and cheerio I feel I must have all the means to do that easily and create maintainable code and thus be able to easily modify the code once the outcome of the web scraping changes into something that does not make sense anymore.
The course does show examples, but it could have been done in a much more concise manner.

This course is great except for the last 2 modules. The angular app seemed rushed and the supplied code didn't work for me.
