- Flask
- Requests
- BeautifulSoup4
- Pandas
- python-docx
## Installation
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone
cd grant_scraper
```
2. Create a virtual environment:
```bash
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
```
3. Install dependencies:
```bash

```python
def fetch_grants():
return [
{
"title": "Grant Title",
"deadline": "2026-12-31",
"link": "example.com"
}
]
```
3. Add to `sources/__init__.py`:
```python
from .new_source import fetch_grants as fetch_new_source
all_sources = [fetch_afri_grants, fetch_new_source]
```
## Configuration
Update `app.py` to change:
