Scraping a html table from a website

New to Julia

I am trying to obtain COVID-19 data from a website. The website has the data which I want but it is in a html table format

I am looking for Julia tools to scrape the information from the html table. Something like this

Is there an existing package in Julia for this?

I am thinking about writing my own module to do this but I ask here first before writing my own module.

Yes, the combination of Gumbo and Cascadia is what you need. There is some example code in the README for Cascadia, and some more examples in this SO post: Extracting and Constructing Tables from HTML Files using Julia - Stack Overflow
