Dart vs. Elixir vs. Python vs. WebScraper.io Comparison Chart

Elixir is a dynamic, functional language for building scalable and maintainable applications. Elixir leverages the Erlang VM, known for running low-latency, distributed, and fault-tolerant systems. Elixir is successfully used in web development, embedded software, data ingestion, and multimedia processing, across a wide range of industries. Check our getting started guide and our learning page to begin your journey with Elixir. All Elixir code runs inside lightweight threads of execution (called processes) that are isolated and exchange information via messages. Due to their lightweight nature, it is not uncommon to have hundreds of thousands of processes running concurrently in the same machine. Isolation allows processes to be garbage collected independently, reducing system-wide pauses, and using all machine resources as efficiently as possible (vertical scaling). Processes are also able to communicate with other processes running on different machines in the same network.

Making web data extraction easy and accessible for everyone. Our goal is to make web data extraction as simple as possible. Configure scraper by simply pointing and clicking on elements. No coding required. Web Scraper can extract data from sites with multiple levels of navigation. It can navigate a website on all levels. Websites today are built on top of JavaScript frameworks that make user interface easier to use but are less accessible to scrapers. WebScraper.io allows you to build Site Maps from different types of selectors. This system makes it possible to tailor data extraction to different site structures. Build scrapers, scrape sites and export data in CSV format directly from your browser. Use Web Scraper Cloud to export data in CSV, XLSX and JSON formats, access it via API, webhooks or get it exported via Dropbox, Google Sheets or Amazon S3.
