Building a Price Tracker Bot

Develop a bot that monitors product prices on e-commerce sites and sends notifications on price drops.

What's a Price Tracker Bot?

Have you ever wanted to know when a product's price drops? A price tracker bot does exactly that!

It's an automated program that regularly checks the price of items on e-commerce websites.

When it detects a price change, especially a drop, it can notify you.

Bot's Core Tasks

Building a price tracker involves several key steps:

  • Fetch: Get the product page content.
  • Parse: Extract the price and product details.
  • Store: Keep track of the last known price.
  • Compare: Check if the current price is lower.
  • Notify: Send an alert if a drop is found.
