Trafilatura: Python tool to gather text on the Web
The feature list answers that question pretty well: https://github.com/adbar/trafilatura#features
Basically: you could implement all of this on top of BeautifulSoup - polite crawling policies, sitemap and feed parsing, URL de-duplication, parallel processing, download queues, heuristics for extracting just the main article content, metadata extraction, language detection... but it would require writing an enormous amount of extra code.

Show HN: Build AI Dags with Memory; Run and Validate LLM Tools in Containers
The WebScraper tool uses Trafilatura [1] to scrape and parse HTML—nothing too fancy. "Scraping" a React site would require a totally different approach, probably something more akin to Adept's ACT-1 [2].
I run a local chat app built with Griptape and I use it to give me summaries of web pages or answer specific questions all the time :)

Powerful and free scraper with a headless browser under the hood and Readability for parsing
I've been playing with Trafilatura lately, and it's very good. There are a few very thorough comparisons to other projects and it really shines. It doesn't do anything headless from what I can tell, but it doesn't have to do the scraping itself. Maybe an option could be to use Playwright to scrape, then Trafilatura to parse. Food for thought.

I made a Chrome Extension that lets you ask any question about the page you are on (bluf.ai)
Cool! If you care to explain me further... :) ... I tried parsing a page using: https://github.com/adbar/trafilatura, json stringify it and passing it to https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/embeddings/create. How do I use the response as an input later? <3

Ask HN: What Underrated Open Source Project Deserves More Recognition?
Two projects I greatly appreciate, allowing me to easily archive my bandcamp and GOG purchases (after the initial setup anyways):
https://github.com/easlice/bandcamp-downloader
https://github.com/Kalanyr/gogrepoc
And I recently learned about archivebox, which I think is going to be a fast favorite and finally let me clear out my mess of tabs/bookmarks: https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox

An Introduction to the WARC File
API is coming soon (relatively, it's still a one-man project)! Stay tuned https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/issues/496
I have an event-sourcing refactor in progress now to allow us to pluginize functionality like the API (similar to Home Assistant with a plugin app sotre), it will take a month or two. Next up is the REST API using the new plugin system.
