Market Research - Similar packages #2

Closed elabandari closed 3 years ago

elabandari commented 3 years ago

Hey folks,

I found a python craigslist scraper package, however, this package has minimal functionality (i.e. doesn't take in user input and doesn't email results). Our package definitely meets the market gap based on our proposed functions.

Assigning @elina-linglin to this issue as this is part of the README.md.

Best, Ela

This is another impressive craigslist scraper (https://github.com/juliomalegria/python-craigslist) but it doesn't have emailing functionality and isn't solely focused on housing.

Hi team, I found an R package to get data from craigslist https://github.com/adletaw/craigr. It can obtain data from any section of craigslist and load it into a clean data.frame within R.

Thank you folks for the researching! I will incorporate these into our README file.
