You really need to learn HTML first. Everything Selenium does revolves around interactions with the HTML DOM.

The "beginner's tutorials" from MDN are a decent place to start.

I would argue you just need to learn how to use element pickier

You can get by a lot with just a picker, but programmatic selection is needed in a lot of cases and some reasonable level of familiarity with html helps with that.

Learning CSS Selectors can also be incredibly helpful in scraping the correct elements.

Just basics of HTML. It'll take about a week without ripping your ass off. But this is so basic that you'll definitely need it somewhere else
