Would be cool if there was this type of tool for canvas[0] as that what my school and most are schools switching to.

Looks like it's open source [0]. If they have a clean API it might be doable without scraping.

The API is pretty comprehensive, and is growing daily. With the exception of some legacy features, all of the web app's UI is built on top of it, as are the mobile apps.
