-Alternatively, when writing in a language other than JavaScript, we can create our own `get_input()` function which utilizes the Apify API when the Actor is running on the platform. For this example, we are using the [Apify Client](../getting_started/apify_client.md) for Python to access the API.

 Before developing a pro-level Apify scraper, there are some important things you should have at least a bit of knowledge about (knowing the basics of each is enough to continue through this section), as well as some things that you should have installed on your system.

 <!-- ### Puppeteer/Playwright {#puppeteer-playwright}
 
 [Puppeteer](https://pptr.dev/) is a library for running and controlling a [headless browser](../../webscraping/scraping_basics_javascript/crawling/headless_browser.md) in Node.js, and was developed at Google. The team working on it was hired by Microsoft to work on the [Playwright](https://playwright.dev/) project; therefore, many parallels can be seen between both the `puppeteer` and `playwright` packages. Proficiency in at least one of these will be good enough. -->
 
 ### Crawlee, Apify SDK, and the Apify CLI {#crawlee-apify-sdk-and-cli}
 
-If you're feeling ambitious, you don't need to have any prior experience with Crawlee to get started with this course; however, at least 5–10 minutes of exposure is recommended. If you haven't yet tried out Crawlee, you can refer to [this lesson](../../webscraping/scraping_basics_javascript/crawling/pro_scraping.md) in the **Web scraping basics for JavaScript devs** course (and ideally follow along). To familiarize yourself with the Apify SDK, you can refer to the [Apify Platform](../apify_platform.md) category.
