Becoming an advanced Pythonist with Projects – book recommendation

Becoming an advanced Pythonist with Projects

Becoming a senior python developer

I often asked by fellow junior developers – “how to become better at Python”.

Besides learning from books, I always suggest working on real world projects,

Building something you’d use yourself, or at least on that will be useful for others.

Few examples

• A sentiment analysis bot for the Crypto market
• A personal video library manager
• Twitch chatbot
• Book discovery platform
