James Hardwhere

Inspiration

For my Cybersecurity class we created web scrapers and one of my class mates made a recipe scraper

What it does

It uses the https address that websites use for searching to find what you are looking for. once that is loaded it looks through the Elements panes (inspect) and searches for the name of the product the cost and the model number (if the website supports that)

How we built it

I built it in java mostly though trial and error to iron out the kinks

Challenges we ran into

I ran into many problems mostly because I have never done web requests before

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I am proud that I made it this far. That once you open the text window you can type in a item and get a response

What we learned

I learned how hard it is to work with multiple different websites and get one searching program to work on both. I learned that this is a very difficult thing to do

What's next for James Hardwhere

I don't think that there is much of a future though if you want to use this a a starting point be my guest.
