# Shopify App Store scraper

## About

Here you can find the code which scrapes and saves data from the [Shopify App Store](https://apps.shopify.com/).

The scraper is used to collect [Shopify app store dataset on Kaggle](https://www.kaggle.com/usernam3/shopify-app-store) and includes these files:
- `apps`
- `apps_categories`
- `categories`
- `key_benefits`
- `pricing_plan_features`
- `pricing_plans`
- `reviews`

While the dataset published on Kaggle is regularly updated, this repository allows keeping the local copy up to date independently of the released version.

Detailed dataset description can be found [here](https://www.kaggle.com/usernam3/shopify-app-store).
