Scratch Notes

1. For static websites, use axios and cheerios. For dynamic websites, use puppeteer.
2. npm - node package manager
3. nodejs - used for non-blocking, event-driven servers, due to its single-threaded nature.
4. axios - promise based HTTP client. Makes it easy to send asynchronous HTTP requests to REST endpoints and perform CRUD operations.
5. cheerio - enables developers to find/specify, interpret, and analyze web pages using a JQuery-like syntax.
6. puppeteer - control a headless browser.
