Step one will be learning to code in any language. Step two is using a library to help with it and don’t use regex like the meme says haha. HtmlAgilityPack has always been there for me.

So uh…as someone who’s currently trying to scrape the web for email addresses to add to my potential client list … where do I start researching this?

Start looking into selenium, probably in Python. It’s one of the easier to understand forms of scraping. It’s mainly used to web testing, though you can definitely use it for less… nice purposes.
