Architechture
The majority of data processing is handled through the WebsiteFolder object. This object performs functions including:
- Reading/Writing to files
- API calls
A <WebsiteFolder> object will hold a 2d list of <Website> objects in the attribute <websiteList>. Index i of websiteList is a list of <Website> objects corresponding to the ones dictated by <websiteTypes> (index 0 is a list of <RedditWebsite>, index 1 is a list of <GamerPowerWebsite>, etc.)
Calling WebsiteFolder methods more often than not calls a <Website> object method on every <Website> object in <this.websiteList> and puts together the results.
