Welcome back! Let’s go ahead and develop a TikTok scraping tool using Python, now this specific tool is a little bit different than the other one’s i’ve created. First off, we’ll be running this program from our terminal / command prompt which will essentially be our front end for this program. The system of this program is this: User runs this program in their terminal > inputs a link to a TikTok users profile > The program will output the number of followers, following and total likes on their profile. If all that sounds good to you then let’s get started!

First off
