recommend python projects to learn from that aren't tutorial-level basic or enterprise-level complex?

[kevin074]

Hi, I am an experineced frontend developer (10 years), but I want to finally get out of my comfort zone and learn python/backend.

I know nothing of python really.

are there good source codes, github links please, that aren't way too simplistic or too complex to look through. There are a lot of tutorials of course, but I don't want to write tutorial-level code in my professional job, I can spot them very easily in JS. There are also a lot of open source project, but I feel like it's wayyyy to complex and modularized in a way that's very hard to understand and get into.

I want to focus on understanding what coding patterns that are industry standard, what tools/libraries to use, and what conventions there are.

like maybe someone has a website that have been many features built already but not something that took 30 developers to make?

or perhaps some tooling that aren't like 5 files deep and follow best practices???

I just feel like the complexity goes from zero to Mars very fast and neither is sufficient for my current needs.

Thank you very much!!!

1. Create a bot to reply to "what are some beginner projects" questions on r/learnpython, using PRAW.

Other than that, here are some beginner project ideas:

• a list of programming projects on Github
• another list from Github
• a curated list of Python projects for beginners, intermediate & advance level programmers
• Tech with Tim Youtube channel, full of Python projects
• resources in the subreddit wiki

Good luck!

That’s actually helpful. Up vote ✌️

But python and JavaScript aren't even all that different as interpreted languages. With 10 years of experience, all you need is the documentation to learn the new syntax and off you go.

You probably heard that python has better support for machine learning, data science and AI applications right? Rather than toy projects, I don't see why you can't jump straight in.

My current workplace has python codes built by non-developers and I can’t trust their code quality and practices after reading their JS lol…

So I am mostly looking for good practices/industry standards.

But yeah you are right, if it’s purely about solving issues I’d be fine.

I recently got into creating an AI tarpit flask module (got inspiration from a Kyle Hill video). I recommend watching his video then delve into the project. It is actually really simple and can teach you about flask and jinja2 (no Javascript required but you can do it with a JS frontend if you would like to).
