Hello,

I got that installation error with

pip install twitter-scraper-selenium

Error:

It will be fine if you checke coding and integration of README.MD. Also the standard is README.md [----> non capital letters of extension *.md].

Thank you @hdaipteam for creating this issue. It happened with my windows machine as well, I've made a few changes to fix it

Great and thanks for the tool set,

Small typo in README.md:

microsoft = scrap_profile(twitter_username="microsoft",output_format="json",browser="firefox",posts_count=10)

The parameter ist tweets_count = 10 instead of posts_count=10

;-)

Yeah, Thanks again for pointing that out😅
