ABOUT THIS COURSE

Python is already used in the backend of most web applications, but sadly it does not work with web browsers to drive the frontend of those applications. Transcrypt can help by creating more coherent web-based projects, using Python to write both the backend and the frontend. This course builds on the lessons in Using the Python Transcrypt Transipler for Front-end Coding to implement a complete React and Python web-based project. In each chapter, we will refactor existing code to add new functionality, building up the application as you go. Each chapter ends with a running application that includes all of the features we added up to that specific point.

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

Just finished my first full #ML course: Machine learning for Software Engineers from Educative, Inc. ... Highly recommend!

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.

Your courses are simply awesome, the depth they go into and the breadth of coverage is so good that I don't have to refer to 10 different websites looking for interview topics and content.
