About this Course
Python has the power and flexibility to run major websites. This versatility allows developers to use Python to create simpler scripts and applications for the web, as well as to perform back-end development on a larger scale.
This course emphasizes network programming and Python Web Frameworks. We’ll explore the underlying principles and their expression in the Python libraries. You’ll discover contrasting approaches in creating applications: programming with the low-level libraries versus using highly integrated frameworks.
