Please can you point me to the Python video course you are using. There are sooooo many. Since you're already studying, tell me which one to use.

Well, I learnt python was easier to start with. smiley

I'm learning JavaScript right now and it's just about everything I learnt in python but different syntaxes and names. It's so boring. I'm just zooming through it. I like the DOM part though, and also the Events part.

Did you learn any framework? Bootstrap, react, angular, vue ?

Please can you list out the resources you used while learning python?

Cool. cool

You use nodejs for server-side? Means you're a JS expert. smiley

Are these client's jobs or just practice projects?

You didn't quote me on this one but I saw it anyway.

I'm not totally focused on data analysis for now. I want to start out with web dev like you're doing. I did a data task an accountant relative gave me. It was about extracting balance sheet tables from pdf files into excel. Then writing a script to automate some calculations and creating graphical representations of the information.

This task sweat me ehn. I was like, bros I just dey start dis coding mata, abeg pity me.grin I used stackoverflow but I finally had to read documentations on github. I'm now confident on using tabula-py, pandas db and openpyxl modules and libraries. cool

Now I'm working on building a site using Django, a python framework for web dev. while still learning JS basics and bootstrap.

Bossgem,

For books(PDFs, epubs);

a)Automate the boring stuff with python.( I started out with this one )
b)Python crash course.
c) A smarter way to learn python. (This one's easier to follow but not challenging enough )


Videos;

Python tutorials with Mosh Hammedani. A 6-hour long video tutorial available on YouTube. Holds your hand all the way from python installation, to setting up the IDE, to projects.
An alternative is the one from freecodecamp. That one's four hours.

Nice one bro.

How do you see CMS like WordPress. Do you intend to learn it and use it later or do you prefer coding from scratch?

IMO coding from scratch gives you better understanding, customization and flexibility. But if you're going to build a site for a client who needs it urgently then I think CMS is the better choice because scratch will take a long time.

AngularJs is not funny at all.... Still not getting it.

Web developers here should list out their training part. What language and tools they've learnt prior to web development.

Are you using pycharm?

Hello!

Yes, I use pycharm mostly, especially for tutorials.

I only got to use Jupyter Notebook for a data project I did because I learnt it was a better choice for data analysis, and rightly so.

Re: Coding Looks Cool. by gbolly1151(m): 12:00am On Nov 24, 2019
Lolz....I can't really denied the fact that python is simple because of its easy syntax and a very recommendable programming language for anyone starting the joining as a programmer.

I started with python and it was very easy for me to switch to other high-level programming. With my knowledge in python am able to code in c++, java, JavaScript and solidity

Currently learning how to deploy django on server after learning the framework itself. I have scanned through node.js,angular.js and some other popular js framework and see that, it was what can be learned easily with strong knowledge in JS

Coding is sweet,when you are able to solve many problems as possible and really help the brain especially your thinking faulty. Hoping to start earning form it soon.
