This is an R package (`parameters`) from the easystats ecosystem that provides a unified interface for extracting, formatting, and comparing parameters from a vast array of statistical models (lm, glmmTMB, brms, lme4, lavaan, fixest, etc.). The package functions as a model-parameter reporting engine: it takes a fitted model object and returns a tidy data frame with coefficients, standard errors, confidence intervals, p-values, and effect sizes, supporting various inference methods (Wald, profile, bootstrap, Kenward-Roger, Satterthwaite). Beyond basic extraction, it offers standardization, bootstrapping, equivalence testing, p-value functions, dominance analysis, and data reduction (PCA, EFA, clustering). The architecture relies heavily on S3 generic dispatch (e.g., `model_parameters.lm`, `model_parameters.glmmTMB`) and integrates with the easystats stack (`insight` for model introspection, `bayestestR` for Bayesian indices, `datawizard` for data manipulation). Output can be formatted as plain text, markdown, or HTML, making it suitable for both interactive use and automated reporting. The package is actively maintained with extensive test coverage and continuous integration.
EasySpider is a visual, no-code web scraping tool that combines an Electron desktop application, a Chrome browser extension, and a Python execution engine. Users design scraping workflows via a flowchart-based UI (Vue.js) where they define steps like opening pages, clicking elements, extracting data, looping, and conditional branching. The task definitions are saved as JSON graphs. The Python backend (ExecuteStage) loads these graphs and drives Chrome using Selenium with an undetected-chromedriver fork to evade bot detection. Extracted data can be written to CSV, Excel, JSON, or MySQL. The tool also includes OCR support (ddddocr), custom JavaScript/Python execution, and Cloudflare bypass capabilities. The architecture is a hybrid desktop app with a local HTTP server (Express) that spawns executor processes and communicates via WebSocket. The Chrome extension assists in element selection and XPath generation. While the tool is functional and popular (44k+ stars), the codebase exhibits significant duplication (e.g., identical task files across platform directories, duplicated Bootstrap and content scripts), hardcoded paths, monolithic executor scripts, and mixed-language strings. Several experimental modules (LLM, federated learning) are present but not integrated. The project is actively maintained with recent commits and packaging scripts, but technical debt and drift (Bootstrap 4, Vue 2, pinned Python dependencies) are moderate.
