🛠️ What is this?

This is a Python script I created in 2022 while learning BeautifulSoup. Its purpose is to automate the process of downloading .py search plugins for qBittorrent. Since there’s no straightforward way to get these plugins automatically, I decided to make it happen with a simple scraper.
