ABOUT THIS COURSE
Python is already used in the back-end of most web-based applications. However, it does not work with the front-end of web browsers in those applications. This is where Transcrypt comes in. Transcrypt can help create more coherent web-based projects where Python is used to write the back-end and front-end. This course is primarily about using a transpiler called Transcrypt. It translates our Python code to JavaScript and then executes that JavaScript, letting us enjoy the neatness of Python with the front-end flexibility of JavaScript.

These are high-quality courses. Trust me the price is worth it for the content quality. Educative came at the right time in my career. I'm understanding topics better than with any book or online video tutorial I've done. Truly made for developers. Thanks

You guys are the gold standard of crash-courses... Narrow enough that it doesn't need years of study or a full blown book to get the gist, but broad enough that an afternoon of Googling doesn't cut it.
