Web scraping may seem like a simple task, but there are many challenges to overcome. In this blog, we will dive into how to scrape LinkedIn to extract job listings. To do this, we will use Puppeteer and RxJS. The goal is to achieve web scraping in a declarative, modular, and scalable manner.
Puppeteer is a JavaScript library that allows you to control web browsers like Chrome for web scraping. Puppeteer enables us to script and monitor tasks such as navigating to a specific webpage and extracting the data we need. It's the ideal tool for web scraping because, being a web browser, it can overcome any potential obstacles, such as in the case of websites that require the execution of JavaScript to function or display data.
