DIO.me Brazil Coding Bootcamp & Courses Scraper

Scrapes all courses, bootcamps, and learning tracks from DIO.me — Brazil's largest free developer education platform with over 9 million registered students and enterprise-sponsored bootcamps from companies including Itaú, XP Inc., Vivo, Globo, and Claro.

What it does

This actor finds every published course and bootcamp track, and returns a clean, fully typed record for each.

Covers two content types:

• Courses — individual video modules (typically 1–4 hours) with instructor names, skills taught, and lesson syllabus
• Bootcamps / Tracks — multi-week programs (often enterprise-sponsored) with student counts, start/end dates, and career path classification

Why it matters

DIO.me occupies a unique data niche: sponsor-company attribution. Every bootcamp lists the Brazilian enterprise that funded it (bank, telco, media company, etc.) alongside participant counts. This data is unavailable from Alura, Rocketseat, or Platzi (all paid-tier-only platforms). It is directly useful for:

• B2B ed-tech and enterprise L&D vendors — which Brazilian companies are investing in developer upskilling, and in which tech stacks?
• Tech talent market research — which skills are most in-demand in the Brazilian market?
• Competitive intelligence — track DIO's course catalog growth and sponsor relationships over time

• Some courses are DIO's own (subscription_type: dev) and some are premium (subscription_type: premium). The is_free field reflects this.
