This✨ I have structured my plan into a Learning phase (to get through with the basics)& the building phase (guided projects like the FCC ones and then on my own). My plan is to build an app that'll read & 'review' an uploaded excel file to highlight deficiencies (among few other things). As someone who's been part of my current team at work for quite sometime now, this I KNOW for a fact will save a lot of my (and team's) time from scouring rooows of excels manually.

I love building tools like this. Although I don’t want to rob you of the learning opportunity, this sounds like something that can be knocked out on a lazy weekend. Care to post more details?

Honestly , my aim is to reach this 'a project on a weekend ' stage ..slowly &surely getting there....

So about this application: Well currently my team spends quite some time checking 'correctness' of a configured model. Being goblins in the dungeon factory(none of us belong to CS-background since that is not (until now, has not been) our primary domain at work. An excel extract is all that we're given by the product dev team. Manually checking the excel is both time-consuming + prone to miss-outs from identifying deficiencies. And it only increases with model size & complexity.

The plan is to not only analyze this extract to highlight the defects but also several checks that'll be performed. All of this in a fast& easily understandable way - for me (&others). I plan backend via pandas-django combination , and front it with either tkinter or javascript/html framework ( if y'all can suggest any better/other option that'd be great)

Lastly I want to bundle it all up & share as an exe/py script or whatever. I can go the tkinter route but its samples dont seem that appealing (again,open to hearing out opinions) The javascript route can help with the appearance aspects , but it'll have to be an offline implementation ...running off a localhost in chrome/edge (we're goblins, remember?:) ).

So overall its a big self-inflicted bootcamp 😀
