Write a web scraper to find events related to sustainability, green living.

Feel free to contact developers on Slack if you'd like guidance

  • Find event sources
  • Choose how to store the data.
    • Some standard database choices are MongoDB, Postgres, or MySQL. You may need to find hosting, but AWS has a free tier
    • Or you can store the data in a file and commit to git.
  • Write a web scraper to regularly visit pages to extract the necessary information and store it (If you don't know how, Puppeteer would be a good starting point)
  • Make this accessible to our website
  • (Optional) Schedule the scraping
