X Scraper Screenshot

Overview

This project is designed for users who want a simple way to capture publicly visible post data from X profile pages while browsing in Chrome. After loading a profile and scrolling through the content you want to include, the extension can crawl the page and save the available post metadata for later review.

Features

  • Scrape post data from X profile pages
  • Capture metadata from posts currently loaded in the browser
  • Track how many posts have been saved
  • Open a dedicated results view for reviewing collected data
  • Run locally as an unpacked Chrome extension

Installation

  1. Open Google Chrome.
  2. Go to chrome://extensions.
  3. Enable Developer mode in the top-right corner.
  4. Click Load unpacked.
  5. Select this project folder.
  6. Confirm that the X Scraper extension appears in your extensions list and toolbar.

How to Use

  1. Open an X profile page, such as https://x.com/someuser.
  2. Scroll through the profile to load the posts you want to capture.
  3. Click the X Scraper icon in the Chrome toolbar.
  4. In the popup, click Crawl Page.
  5. Wait for the extension to process the visible posts and update the saved-post counter.
  6. Click See Results to open the collected output in a new tab.

Notes

  • The extension scrapes posts that are currently loaded on the page, so scrolling is required before crawling additional content.
