Skills needed for making automation bots?

[Lipstick Spoiler]

Can someone please tell me what skills are required to make automation bots that let you scrape, edit, upload, and schedule content on youtube? What skills in the sense what programming languages are needed to be learned to make automation bots for Reddit, Twitter, and other platforms?
Is python enough or do other languages need to be learned as well? I don't know shit about programming but I think it is a precious skill to be learned. I am planning to give 10 hrs a day to learn to program. someone, please guide

Automate the boring stuff (Python edition) + whatever API you need should be fine.

Not much. You can get WinAutomation cracked to scrape and such and ffmped to autoedit/split/combine videos.

WinAutomation has all you may need. You can call ffmped with it too.

It can also open your browser and work with that. Means you should be able to use the regular uploading way of yt

python would help with all this stuff right? Like posting and scheduling on twitter, reddit and insta? I can do that on twitterdec too, but i don't want to upload manually 100s of videos and schedule them. I will learn python first and get a hang of it

does it require any prior knowledge of coding brother?

Yeah, Python makes things easy these days. I remember when most of it had to be done in Perl, haha.

Just make sure you're getting the basics done, it may be the simplest language to learn, but also one of the most versatile.

Yeah man, I did start a while ago, but got burnt out easily. Now I have a goal set in my mind. Hopefully I'll get my basics cleared as soon as possible so that I can atleast understand the code given in the GitHub regarding automations

Python + Selenium library. It's quite easy to learn and the learning curve is quite short and simple. On Youtube, you can find good excellent tutorials about Python and Selenium.

This would help me in making bots that automate things right? Like on Pinterest these days, you can upload "idea pins" but not schedule it. There's no feature of scheduling it. Making a bot that posts automatically everyday can be done by leaning these two skills right?
Also brother, if this is so simple, why don't people learn it themselves and implement this? I saw a thread about automation where he made a bot that can scrape content from tiktok by hashtags, remove its background music, add a new copyright free music, compile 3-4 videos, publish and schedule them on the YouTube and he was posting like 100 shorts a day. People were ready to give him even 300 dollars for purchasing that bot. I don't understand why people aren't taking the step to learn such skills themselves if they are so easy to learn

Thanks brother!!

Some languages are easier to learn than others. Python being one of the easier ones makes people say it's easy to learn. However, if you need to dive deeper into all the details things aren't easy anymore, and most people stop at the first 2 or 3 steps when they encounter some level of complexity.

Even if you know the basics of Python, you still need to learn some other modules/technologies to be able to properly automate stuff. This among problem-solving, logic designing, studying documentations/research papers, etc. In short, it becomes 'easy' if you're going to put in the work, which many aren't doing

I have built tons of bots with Python and Selenium. I don't know for others, but I love to build stuff to make business easier. I just love coding for myself. As a beginner, you will need to understand Python syntax and the logic behind it, but if you are committed enough you can learn it in a few months.

You have to understand that any bot you make you will have to tweak it all the time. Pinterest may change the login form and you will have to fix your bot as well. For most people, it's easier to purchase the software. But I love the freedom and flexibility when comes to custom bots vs commercial bots.

Not really. Its mostly drag and drop.

Sure a little understanding of what a loop is and if then else...

But it is mostly drag and drop stuff

Mate, don't look for excuses. I learned HTML, CSS, PHP, and JS from the books. Back then, good books have been quite rare and expensive. 20+ years ago there were no free online tutorials, free programming camps, free video courses, communities, or anything. I bought a couple of books on Amazon and studied every single day.

Congrats on the impressive longevity Having just half o that myself.

It's people not willing to put in the work that look for excuses.

Python + some libaries + some ip

 

[Zooker]

I would say python and learning to work with a database

I have 500 videos that I scraped from Instagram. Now I want to upload them to youtube in the form of shorts. I want to upload 20 videos every day at different points in time. Right now, I am manually uploading them to the youtube creator studio and scheduling them each day. This is the first thing I do when I wake up. Now, it is kinda annoying since videos aren't getting too much traction. I want to automate this process. I want someone(a bot in this case) to upload videos every day and schedule them. How can I achieve this? I have 2 channels.. Is there a way to automate this?

The same goes for Facebook reels. I have to every time open the window and schedule 100s of videos which honestly takes a hell lot of time. Is there a way to automate such things? I don't wanna scrape anything. I have everything ready. I just want to automate this uploading and scheduling thing

Sounds like you’ll want to learn Python and Selenium.
