    Julia wrapper around Google's gumbo C library for parsing HTML

    I haven't seen that tutorial, but I agree that HTTP.jl, Gumbo.jl, and Cascadia.jl are the way. I used them to export public wishlists from bookdepository, which has no API nor a built in exporting tool.

  • Cascadia.jl

    A CSS Selector library in Julia

    I haven't seen that tutorial, but I agree that HTTP.jl, Gumbo.jl, and Cascadia.jl are the way. I used them to export public wishlists from bookdepository, which has no API nor a built in exporting tool.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • HTTP.jl

    HTTP for Julia

    I haven't seen that tutorial, but I agree that HTTP.jl, Gumbo.jl, and Cascadia.jl are the way. I used them to export public wishlists from bookdepository, which has no API nor a built in exporting tool.
