Yes. Me too. Alistair, any starting points with this example? I will take from there and we could get visibility in the upcoming Open Data Day.
Of course, we're going to document everything and share back (I have already proposed some improvements in documentation via PR on the Git repo).
Cheers,

Hi,
I have been finally able to install and use properly Pharo Chrome. The issues I reported in other thread, were caused by conflicts between OSProcess and OSSubProcess on Linux. Now I'm able to launch Chrome, point it to particular addresses and get some info from there.
I would like to continue the conversation related with web scraping using Pharo Chrome, which comes handy now that there is a lot of React and other technologies making the web more and more opaque for digital citizenship and data activism endeavors. So, as an starting example, I would like to scrap the Grafoscopio's own page [1]. It makes use of Material Design Light [2].
[1] http://mutabit.com/grafoscopio/index.en.html [2] http://getmdl.io/
An starting example would be fine to kickstart myself (from the ones I'm reading, there is still something I don't get). Let's say I want to get all cards in [1] , as shown in the screenshot below. I know the div class of each one, and the div class where they are located. Which could be a minimal example of a scraper, to start with?
Thanks,
Offray
