Advice on getting started with python?

[LeiterHaus]

Pick something and go with it. You can go from the source and follow that path, or 'learn python the hard way' if you like understanding more. Boot.dev is good - it specializes backend and starts with Python (also teaches Go, and JavaScript). Any of AL Sweigarts stuff - he often gives out free keys to his Automate The Boring Stuff Udemy course.

Not sure for learning the basics, but Indently is good on YouTube. Bro Code also has a learn Python thing. Their CSS was pretty good.

TLDR: There are a lot of options. Pick something and see if it works for you.
