3. News from the world of Python and Apify
We have just released our first universal scraper with Python support 🥳
It uses Beautiful Soup to parse HTML and XML documents. Our BeautifulSoup Scraper provides an interface for navigating and manipulating the document structure. Its powerful search functions let you search for elements based on tags, attributes, or CSS classes.
Try BeautifulSoup Scraper and scrape websites as easy as this:

title = context.soup.title.string if context.soup.title else None
return {"url": url, "title": title}
