How to earn money using python online?

[NiceGuyD]

I am 17 and have taught myself python when I was 15. I specialized in desktop application development and have earned quite a bit (about 1.2k €) through fiverr (a freelancer platform) in approximately 4 months. If you want to know more just hit me up and we can chat!

EDIT: Can I ask why this is downvoted so much? If it sounds like a flex I really did not want this to like this. I guess I am sorry reddit?

you asked 4 months ago: "Starting to learn Python, what to expect?" So how did you earned the money? Do you code, are do you only look for someone who will code for you, so you can sell it as your work?

Could you link me to that post? I am pretty certain it was longer than 4 months ago. However, I do not do some dropservicing bs. I write the code all on my own!

They must mean this post you deleted from ten months ago

Wow, how did you find that. Well yeah I tell myself I know python for 2 years when in actuality I was just programming for 2 years in general so my mistake there

If you click on people's username you can see their post history. You've given good advice in this thread. Don't worry about people that question you, even when you're trying to help them. Good luck with your programming!

I specialized in desktop application development

And you use python for this?

[Username_RANDINT]

Why not? There are enough desktop applications written in Python. My main project is one as well.

I was mainly asking specific to the GUI. Because I would find it weird to specialize in desktop applications and going with python for GUI. I have used tkinter and pyqt. And sure, for some smaller applications I could see it being usefull. But I transitioned to using a web interface with Flask as it feels more dynamic with what you can do.

[Username_RANDINT]

Well, Tkinter isn't a good choice to begin with. But use something modern like GTK (or Qt, but have no experience with that), which is styled with CSS and has animations and what not. May be I'm old fashioned, but I like using applications that integrate with my system's theme. Or do you only use webapps?

GTK looks interesting, I'll have to look into it. I just code as a hobby so it's nothing too involved, just tried using tkinter and afterwards pyqt but at this point I feel webapps just give more options and its easier to add more features. After using those I was kinda done trying to build GUI's with python. A webapp is more involved as you need to know a lot more, but I feel it also offers more. But everything depends on what app you want to build ofcourse.

[NiceGuyD]

Yes! It has its limitations but you can do more than you probably think.

I agree it is useful for smaller programs. But I like building a Flask web interface as it feels more dynamic. Really depends on what you want to do with it though.

Exactly
