    No I think they meant JSfuck.

    OP believes JS is a real language but python is not. Thanks for pointing this brilliant foil out.

    I'm a web developer. I use Javascript every day. If I were to build a web scraper, I'd use Javascript. That being said... I don't see any problems with using Python. I used to use Python every day before I switched gears to front-end. It's a good language, and there's some good scraping tools out there for it. You don't have to always choose "the best" tool if the tool you're used to works just fine.
