## What it is
Source code repository for the Chinese book 'Python3 Web Spider Development in Practice' by Cui Qingcai. It contains example code covering web scraping fundamentals, parsing libraries, dynamic rendering, captcha handling, and distributed crawling with Scrapy.

## Use cases
- learn web scraping with python 3
- scrape ajax and dynamic websites
- bypass captchas when crawling
- build a distributed scraper with scrapy
- scrape mobile apps with mitmdump and appium
- maintain a proxy pool for crawling

## When to choose
- you are learning Python web scraping from scratch
- you want worked examples for requests, BeautifulSoup, XPath, pyquery, Selenium, and Scrapy
- you read the book and want its accompanying code

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready scraping framework rather than tutorial code
- you need an actively maintained tool with support
- you cannot read Chinese, since the book and comments are in Chinese

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: web-scraping, parser, developer-tools
- domain: crawlers, tutorials
- platform: python, cross-platform
- tags: book-source-code, web-crawler, scrapy, selenium, chinese-language, python
