๐Ÿ”’ The Problem

There are a lot of resources across the web, and one has to browse through a ton of websites to find the resources on needs. This consumes a lot of time and is a tiring process. In case of freelancing jobs this might be a disadvantage and one might lose a project because of bidding late. On the other hand looking for the right course on different platforms might be confusing for beginners. This was an unsolved yet an important problem. And luckily 13bhai solves this.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Challenges Faced

The biggest challenge I faced was with web scraping. Scraping relevant information was the biggest challenge. And most important, of all the websites I have added, Udemy was the most difficult one. Since Udemy doesn't allow scarping through any means, I had to wait for 2 days just get its Affiliate API access. Nevertheless, I overcame all the challenges and learned from them. As they say

Challenge and adversity are meant to help you know who you are.
