Web-scraping IMDb with R
There are many no-code tools for web scraping, like browser plug-ins (e.g. Webscraper) and software (e.g. Parsehub). However, if you need more advanced scraping settings and have basic coding skills, I recommend the Python libraries Beautiful Soup or Selenium, and the R package rvest. The latter is the one I used for scraping IMDb and you can find the commented code on my GitHub.

The Battle for Third in Market Capitalization—Cryptocurrency [OC]
This was created using R's {gganimate} package. Huge help from this stackoverflow post showing how to interpolate the values between frames to add more flow to the animation. As well, this post about emoji's that provides a `mean_colour` function that made it easier to match bar colours to the coin images.
