Skills and Insights Gained

During this project, I deepened my proficiency in web scraping using Python and Selenium, honing my ability to automate browser actions and extract structured data from dynamic web pages. I developed efficient scripts to scrape a variety of data points from Instagram, including post descriptions, follower and following lists, and like counts. This experience strengthened my understanding of data handling, web scraping techniques, and overcoming challenges related to dynamic content and rate limits.
