A smart Instagram-Bot made in Python.
InstaFlayer is a fully-featured Instagram Bot which can perform various Instagram operations automatically. It is presently made in two variants in order for better understanding to the users. The first variant is made upon the instabot library, while the latter is completely developed using Selenium web-scrapping tool.

Note:
- One of the most common error that persists for posting multiple images one after the other, it shows "ERROR - Photo Upload failed with the following response: <Response [403]> instagram bot" This error can be solved by resetting cache and counter file content saved when using it. Refer the code for more.
- Instagram is strict about the automatically operated bots and has declared illegal. So while testing and running the code on the profile, don't perform too many actions otherwise there are chances of the profile to be blocked. Use this only for learning purpose.
