DEVLOG #1

The scraper is something that I had completed a few months back. I made it for my friend’s business. Now, I am trying to expand the scope of this from just a scraper to a full Business platform where a whole team can collaborate on cold-calling with daily quotas and a manager who can view stats about his employees. I also want to make a live chat option to better increase coordination between the team. It is a pretty basic project but a pretty ambitious for me.

Right now, I have completed all the error handling and re-enforcing the scraper logic in the 4 hours that I have spent, to make it ready for a web-UI.

I will now start working on making the actual API and database for my project.

There are 3 basic tables that I have identified:

Teams
Users
Leads

I believe that all other features can build on top of these 3 as these are the basic building blocks. Hence, I will start working on making these right now.

This is my first time working with FastAPI (earlier I had only used Flask) so there will be a learning gap but I have experience with Flask so I think that transitioning would be easier.
