-# Start Scraping
-
-In this section, we'll dive into the process of initiating web scraping using flyscrape. Now that you have created and fine-tuned your scraping script, it's time to run it and start gathering data from websites.
-
-## The `flyscrape run` Command
-
-The `flyscrape run` command is used to execute your scraping script and retrieve data from the specified website. This command is your gateway to turning your scraping logic into actionable results.
-
-## Running Your Scraping Script
-
-To run your scraping script, simply use the `flyscrape run` command followed by the name of your script file. For example:
-
-```bash
-flyscrape run my_scraping_script.js
-```
-
-This command will initiate the scraping process as defined in your script. Flyscrape will execute your script and stream the JSON output of the extracted data directly to your terminal.
-
-## Saving Scraped Data to a File
-
-You can easily save the JSON output of the scraped data to a file using standard shell redirection. For example, to save the scraped data to a file named `result.json`, you can use the following command:
-
-```bash
-flyscrape run my_scraping_script.js > result.json
-```
-
-This command will execute your scraping script and save the extracted data in the `result.json` file in the current directory.
-
-## Example Workflow
-
-Here's a simple workflow for starting web scraping with flyscrape, including saving the scraped data to a file:
-
-1. Create a scraping script using `flyscrape new` and fine-tune it using `flyscrape dev`.
-
-2. Save your script.
-
-3. Run the script using `flyscrape run`.
-
-4. Observe the terminal as flyscrape streams the JSON output of the extracted data in real-time.
-
-5. If you want to save the data to a file, use redirection as shown above (`flyscrape run my_scraping_script.js > result.json`).
-
-6. Customize the script to store, process, or further analyze the extracted data as needed.
-
-7. Continue scraping or iterate on your script for more complex scenarios.
-
-With this workflow, you can efficiently gather and process data from websites using flyscrape, with the option to save the extracted data to a file for later use or analysis.

-This concludes the "Start Scraping" section, which covers the process of initiating web scraping with the `flyscrape run` command, including an example of how to save the scraped data to a file. Next, you can explore various configuration options and advanced features in the "Options" section to further tailor your scraping experience.
