Create Custom Dataset Fastai v2

Part 1 (2020)
1

Hi All
I apologize if this seems like a rookie question. But i’ve been trying to figure out how to make a custom dataset using Fastai v2. Any idea? I was thinking i could scrape google images based on my classes. But not sure if that would be a good solution.

I Want to know if fastai2 has any helper functions that could help me quickly make a dataset and filter through it to remove any images not belonging to the said class.

Will be grateful for any help.
Thanks

There is an example of doing just that in the Lesson 2 notebook
You can also see it in the video at around 1:15 mark: https://course.fast.ai/videos/?lesson=2
