🕷️ Scrapling tip: sitemap_follow filters child sitemaps before they are fetched. Point SitemapSpider at an index and keep only product maps. Blog and category maps are never downloaded, so you skip whole crawl branches with one LinkExtractor ⚡

🕷️ Scrapling tip: development_mode=True saves spider responses to disk. Change parse() and rerun against the same saved page, without fetching it again. The demo shows 0 cache hits, then 1. Cached pages never expire, so turn this off in production ⚡

🕷️ Scrapling tip: follow_redirects="safe" blocks redirects to private IPs. A public URL can point your scraper at localhost with one redirect. Fetcher stops that hop by default, while normal public redirects still work. ⚡

🕷️ Scrapling tip: save_state() in v0.5 packs cookies, localStorage and IndexedDB into one Playwright-compatible JSON file. Use load_state() in a fresh browser to restore them. This demo moves an IndexedDB record without copying a browser profile 🎯

🕷️ Scrapling tip: crawl_strategy="dfs" in v0.5 follows new links first, so you can explore a branch before older queued pages. Default "bfs" takes the oldest first. Higher priorities still win. Use concurrent_requests=1 to see the order clearly 🎯

🕷️ Scrapling tip: record_requests=True in v0.5 saves browser network history. Close the browser, then use session.network.search() to read saved API replies as JSON. Choose the URL filter AFTER browsing, with no repeat requests 🎯

🕷️ Scrapling tip: pierce_shadow=True in v0.5 brings open Shadow DOM content into the response. Read it with normal CSS or XPath, including text assigned to slots. No custom JavaScript to walk shadow roots. Closed roots stay out 🎯

🕷️ Scrapling tip: curl2fetcher() replays DevTools "Copy as cURL" requests. Scrapling reads the method, headers, cookies and JSON body for you, then sends the request with Fetcher. Turn a browser API call into Python without rebuilding it by hand ⚡

🕷️ Scrapling tip: LinkExtractor(process=...) cleans URLs BEFORE duplicate removal. Strip utm_* tags so email and social links to the same product collapse into one. Keep size and color params so real variants stay separate. Fewer wasted requests ⚡

🕷️ Scrapling tip: additional_args lets you set the browser's geolocation and grant location access. Scraping a page with a "near me" button? Give it fixed coordinates and read the result. No manual permission clicks or OS changes ⚡
