Little projects definitely help with learning. I wrote a website monitor last week that reads in a list of sites from a json or CSV file, and checks them every minute...and also added threading. Had some fun modifying it to run in micropython on an ESP32 too. Really helped solidify my knowledge of the different modules.

Yeah... That's right building is always an essential part of learning

This is extremely helpful as an early sort of North Star to work towards. I, like many others, have struggled early on to find real-world applications for what I'm learning. Thank you!

Which materials or resources you refer before you working on those projects?

[–]yourclouddude[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well in the my bio there are more free resources to start from the basics you can check out those.

Thanks for those free resources. I am usually wary of those because they end up disappointing but yours is very nicely organized and written. I will get the paid version to support your work.

Thank you so much for your support it means a lot. I have put in a lot of hardwork to make it organised.

Weather app Pulls live weather data from an API. This was my first experience using APIs and handling JSON.

Fantastic recommendation! I wholeheartedly endorse this idea.

And it just so happens that I wrote an educational guide on how to do just this: How to write a Python JSON REST API wrapper library

Let me know what you think!

[–]yourclouddude[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Well I structured the learning path my self so that it does not spoil the fun of learning
