## Description

<strong>PageSieve</strong> is a browser extension that assists with the extraction of
structured data from any webpage you visit. Define field names, CSS 
selectors and (optionally) pagination strategy through a sidebar and extract
and export data in a variety of formats.

The extension is designed around a few core principles:
<ul><li><strong>Ergonomic CSS definition</strong> - discovering CSS selectors should be a simple point-and-click operation.</li><li><strong>Minimal UI</strong> - in-browser sidebar that does not take you to a different application.</li><li><strong>Local first</strong> - scraping can be done entirely on device.</li><li><strong>Reusable recipes</strong> - once you define fields and selectors, you can save your
  configuration for use at a later date or share it online.</li></ul>
Some key features include:
<ul><li>Sidebar UI for defining:<ul><li>Field name</li><li>CSS/XPath selector</li><li>How to move to next page</li></ul></li><li>Tabular display of extracted values</li><li>Export extracted data in a variety of formats</li><li>Import / export configurations as JSON files</li><li>Works on any website your browser can load</li></ul>
