The biggest mistake I see beginners make is trying to scrape from the frontend system, and not the backend.
The most common thing I see when I am asking about how to scrape a certain site is people struggling to get data from the front end of a modern website. These sites are using SPA (single page applications) that rely heavily on JavaScript or JS framework to load up the data. This way, whilst sometimes possible is just not option for extracting the data. We need to understand a little bit about how these sites work so we can use the right approach or method to accessing the data.
