Twitter Scraper
This project is an unauthenticated web scraper designed to extract public data from the Twitter frontend API. It functions as a social media data extractor that simulates browser requests to gather information without the need for official API keys or user account authentication.
The tool provides capabilities for gathering public posts, harvesting user profile metadata such as biographies and locations, and retrieving trending topics categorized by geographical region. It can perform targeted content scraping based on specific usernames, hashtags, or search queries.
The system manages data collection through pagination, header-based client emulation to mimic web browsers, and the parsing of structured JSON responses from public endpoints.
