Automated my Quora answer

Code I used is simple. It uses the BeautifulSoup Python library to extract all the headings from the article and generate markdown links. Time was of the essence as there is a relationship between the length of your answer and the time to answer.
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import urllib2
url= 'https://colorlib.com/wp/free-css3-frameworks/'
page = urllib2.urlopen(url)
soup = BeautifulSoup(page.read(), "html.parser")
css_frameworks = soup.findAll("h2")
for framework in css_frameworks:
try:
name = framework.a.text
url = framework.a.get('href')
print('[{}]({})'.format(name, url))
except:
pass
