Do It Yourself – Website Tutorials

In this video we’ll build a fun little Bitcoin Price Web Scraper with Tkinter and Beautiful Soup!

Scraping data from websites is super easy with BeautifulSoup. In this video I’ll show you how to do it and also create a little app that checks for price updates every 30 seconds.

The app will also tell you whether the price of Bitcoin has gone up or down since the last time it checked, and the text will change color to red if the price dropped, and green if the price increased.

We’ll need to pip install beautifulsoup4 from the terminal for this to work.
