# Yiffer Scraper
A pure Python scraper to download comics from yiffer.xyz, automatically packing them into `.cbz` files.
It is completely written using Python's standard library, meaning it works out-of-the-box anywhere Python 3 is installed—including on Android via Termux!
## Features
- **Browse & Search:** Search for comics directly from the terminal.
- **Concurrent Downloads:** Download pages in parallel.
- **CBZ Export:** Packages downloads directly into CBZ format.
- **Termux Compatible:** Requires zero third-party packages (no `pip install requests` necessary).
## Installation & Usage (All Platforms)
You only need Python 3 installed. If you're on Linux, macOS, or Windows, simply download `yiffer_scraper.py` and run it:
```bash
python3 yiffer_scraper.py browse
python3 yiffer_scraper.py download "Comic Name"
```
## Termux Setup (Android)
If you are using Termux on Android, setup is extremely simple:
1. Install Python:
```bash
pkg update && pkg install python -y
```
2. Make the script executable:
```bash
chmod +x yiffer_scraper.py
```
3. Run the script:
```bash
./yiffer_scraper.py --help
