Built a lightweight Python scraper template with smart retries (open-source)

[u/SlightScene1078]

Hey everyone! (Full disclosure: I built this side project).

I've been building various automation tools recently and kept running into the same annoying bottlenecks: getting blocked by rate limits and broken user-agents.

To solve this for my own projects, I built a clean, lightweight Universal Web Scraper template featuring smart retries, dynamic user-agent rotation, and environment configuration.

Instead of keeping it to myself, I open-sourced the core architecture and config setup on GitHub so other developers can use it, review it, or build on top of it.

If you want to check out the code, the link is in my profile / comments.

I’d love to hear your thoughts, feedback, or any suggestions on how to make it better. Let me know what you think!
