Hi, I am Ekaale born in Kenya, and currently living in Canada. I am currently exploring the software development field. Initially interested in web development, I am quite acquainted with combining different techniques to create working software. I am passionate about technology accessibility and open data.

I am currently working on improving web crawling/ scraping skills by building an automated web crawler for scraping hotel data from booking.com. I dedicate my free time to designing and learning new technology. Figuring out how to build something of value that anyone can use freely. My future projects will focus on data extraction and creating a one-stop API platform for different types of datasets for the African continent.

Your sponsorship is important because it will help me remain motivated in building open-source software/tools. Another reason is that your contribution will support my growth as a software developer through learning, searching and building. It will encourage me to push my limits and try new skills and strengthen my problem-solving ability. The funds will be used to improve my current web scraping projects and future projects. Where I plan to improve the bot performance, implement proxy, and create an API that people can use to retrieve data. I plan to build a web application interface to help people with no programming experience be able to scrape. booking.com_crawler and Premier League Bot
