create web-scraped API

Project Goal:
Right now the data of the app is static (done manually)

To make the data dynamic, we can build multiple scrapers that grab data from different websites ( dotabuff, gamepedia, etc) and have a cron job set to run those scrappers ever week or so. That way the data will always be up to date.

Then we can build a really nice API that will use all the data from the scrapers and we could try to use machine learning to make predictions.

This task:
A web scraping API needs to be built similar to this guide
