Overview

tidyextractors makes extracting data from supported sources as painless as possible, delivering you a populated Pandas DataFrame in three lines of code. tidyextractors was inspired by Hadley Whickham’s (2014) paper which introduces “tidy data” as a conceptual framework for data preparation.
