This tool have been made as an alternative of the Chrome extension export List of Followers from Instagram that has been killed for some ""reasons"". It was made to export data on the accounts as sterra's export module does. This is the main inspiration.
I was using it to do manually the job of sterra's analyse module.
The export module uses the Instagram GraphQL API to get the lists of usernames. The architecture of it is based on the get_instagram_followers-following_list one.

Sterra and Sterraxcyl are the same program; Sterraxcyl is the old name, but it was weird afterall, so i changed it as i could to Sterra
