# Program consists of:

1. **Scrapers**:

    - Due to the highest level of abstraction achieved, almost all types of case-specific scrapers are divided by needs and use cases.

    - Two main types of parsers are highlighted for this project:

        - `requests`-based scrapers

          - Are used to request APIs and web sources without protection. These may be replaced with aiohttp in the future if the number of sources grows.

        - `selenium`-based scrapers.

          - Are used to request web sources with possible anti-bot and anti-scraping protections. This is a straightforward, time-tested tool that never disappoints.

2. **Content**:

    - Due to the highest level of abstraction, almost all web content on the internet is managed to be implemented according to its:

        - origin and method of obtaining,

        - type for further analysis and processing.

3. **Cache**:

    - Custom cache designed to be a local key-value in-memory cache, similar to Redis, with timestamp functionality similar to ORM implementations.

    - Naturally, it includes all necessary methods such as 'get', 'reset', and 'update'.

    - For this project, it is programmed to automatically reset after midnight in the USA Eastern Time Zone.

4. **ExceptionLogger**:

    - Custom logger designed to log exceptions with maximum information.
