A WebReg scraper that scrapes important information regarding major/minor/honors requirements not found in the SOC API or any other public-facing Rutgers API. This is a project built primarily for automatically creating core requirements for Scarlet Navigator. However, there are other experimental WebReg data that can be scraped as well.
It scrapes Webreg information by logging into WebReg using a headless Chrome/Chromium browser via Pupeteer, compiling important data into a json file that is general and parsable by the Scarlet Navigator project.
