Please help make a quick guide to demonstrate how to use the script for dummies who don't know a thing about python or programming. Thank You

Hi, @Darkpte.

Will this article be enough for you?

Hi, @vladkens.

I've been figuring how to use twscrape as a beginner myself. While the article does a good job at explaining it, I think the readme itself should either include easy-to-use beginner friendly examples as a good practice., or, can be organized a lil better (less overwhelming).

Alternatively, I propose a hands-on introductory notebook which can help one get started.

If either of the idea sound good to you, I can open a separate issue and work on it. Lemme know!

This is probably out of the scope of the package, but what I need is a tutorial with information on how to buy twitter accounts and the best practices regarding their use with VPN's. It would be really useful if you could post here some links to where we can find such information. Thanks!

Hi @chinmaychahar @tmsss,

Will this article on Medium help?

The article breaks it down in the "Tweets Mining" step. You could also ask your questions there.

Also, you could go through the Jupyter notebook attached.
