Join Python for Pioneers Community Next Week

InPerson+ is launching its first micro-community “Python for Pioneers” for anyone who wants to learn Python and build their portfolio in a supportive community. It’s completely free and live sessions begin today. More details in the post below! https://lnkd.in/eTjvA29M https://lnkd.in/es-PjK3z

Since school (Youcode), I’ve always loved reading other people’s code. I enjoy seeing their ideas, coding styles, and how they think. Back then it was easy, I could read my friends’ code, small GitHub projects, or code at work. But when I started learning low-level programming for myself, it got harder. For example, reading Lua’s source code (a scripting language used in game engines and tools like Neovim). It’s written in C, and honestly, it wasn’t easy to follow. Personally, I prefer Lua over Python — they serve similar purposes, but Lua being lightweight and embeddable makes it more interesting to me. Anyways this guide helped me a lot to navigate it: https://lnkd.in/dm5c5C6e Recently, I started a new challenge: building a mini Git to understand how it works. So I tried reading Git’s source code… and again, it was hard 😅. But I found this great blog series by Fabien Sanglard that simplifies the journey and explains how things were introduced step by step: https://lnkd.in/dAiiqkKb If you made it this far, thanks for reading 🙌 What did you find hard when learning something new?

🚀 Day 19/100: Event Listeners & The Turtle Race! 🐢🏁 💡 Did you know? The concept of "Event-Driven Programming" is what allows your computer to respond to a mouse click or a key press. Without it, software would just run in a straight line without ever listening to the user! I’ve reached Day 19 of #100DaysOfCode! Today was all about moving from "static" code to "interactive" systems by using Event Listeners and Higher-Order Functions. Key technical takeaways: ✅ Event Listeners: Using `.listen()` and `.onkey()` to make the program respond to keyboard inputs. ✅ Higher-Order Functions: Passing one function into another as an argument—a powerful concept for building flexible code. ✅ State & Multiple Instances: Creating multiple "Turtle" objects from the same class, each with its own state (color, position, speed). ✅ Game Logic: Building a betting system where the user predicts the winner of a randomized race. Learning how to make code "listen" is the first step toward building real-world applications that users can actually interact with! 🛡️ Check out the "Turtle Derby" here: 🔗https://lnkd.in/gY7dH6Xg Nineteen days of consistent training. Day 20, let's keep the pace! 🚀 #Python #100DaysOfCode #EventDrivenProgramming #GameDev #TurtleGraphics #CodingChallenge #DevCommunity

💻 Want to take your API from free → paid? Here’s a 60-second starter guide on how to do it by hand with Python via FastAPI 1/ Install dependencies 2/ Set your environment variables 3/ Create a new FastAPI app 4/ Run the server 5/ Read the docs for more easy guides like this one 👇 (https://lnkd.in/gsyHjWdn)

Checking Codeforces, then AtCoder, then LeetCode just to keep track of contests is a productivity killer. So I built CPAgent. It fetches upcoming contests from Codeforces, AtCoder, LeetCode, and CodeChef every day and syncs them straight to Google Calendar. Correct timezone. No duplicates. No manual effort. Built with Python 3.10, Pydantic v2, and the Google Calendar API. Repo is live and open source. 🔗 GitHub: https://lnkd.in/g7JxU8g3 #OpenSource #Python #CompetitiveProgramming #Automation #GitHubActions

🚀 My Docker Journey | Understanding Docker Images 🧱 Continuing my learning, here’s my simple understanding of Docker Images 🔹 What is a Docker Image? A Docker Image is a blueprint that contains everything needed to run an application. 👉 “It’s a ready-to-use package for your app” 🔹 What does it include? • Application code • Runtime (Python, Node.js, etc.) • Libraries & dependencies • Configuration 🔹 Image vs Container Image = Recipe 🍲 Container = Running Dish 🍛 🔹 What I Practiced: • Pulling images from Docker Hub • Running containers • Running in background (detached mode) • Port mapping to access applications • Managing & removing containers/images ⚙️ Hands-on learning is helping me understand how applications actually run in real environments 📄 Sharing my detailed PDF below 👇 #Docker #LearningJourney #DockerImages #HandsOn #TechLearning

We’re proud to be a sponsor at PyTexas Foundation 2026. If you're building modern Python apps, this hands-on lab is worth your time: Building a Full-Stack FastAPI App with open source DocumentDB via Docker You’ll build a full-stack app using FastAPI and open source DocumentDB, all running in Docker—focused on rapid prototyping, scalable APIs, and clean dev workflows. This one is very practical: containerized development, CI/CD patterns, and real-world debugging in reproducible environments. https://msft.it/6045Q7RZL #DocumentDB #Python #AzureDocumentDB

🚀 I turned a simple idea into a fully functional desktop game! 🎯 Project: Number Guessing Game (Python + Tkinter) This started as a basic beginner project… but I decided to push it further and build something more structured, interactive, and professional. 💡 What I Learned • How to design GUI applications using Tkinter • Writing cleaner code using class-based structure (OOP) • Managing application state (score, timer, difficulty) • Saving and loading data using JSON (data persistence) • Improving user experience with features like hints, timer, and history ⚠️ Mistakes I Made • Used too many global variables in the beginning • Mixed UI code and logic (made debugging harder) • Timer bugs (multiple timers running at once 😅) • Poor structure → hard to scale features 🛠 How I Solved Them • Refactored code into a class-based system • Separated logic into clear functions • Fixed timer using after() and proper cancellation • Improved structure → made it easier to add features like dark mode & difficulty levels 🎮 Key Features ✔ Difficulty levels (Easy / Medium / Hard) ✔ Countdown timer ⏱ ✔ Smart hints 🔥 ✔ Guess history 📊 ✔ Score + High Score tracking ✔ Dark/Light mode 🌙 ✔ Start menu system 🎯 My Goal With This Project Not just to “make a game”… but to understand how real applications are structured and improve my problem-solving skills. This project helped me move from basic coding → thinking like a developer. 💬 I’d love feedback from the community! 🔗 GitHub Repo:https://lnkd.in/gprcK9HN What should I build next? #Python #Tkinter #BeginnerProjects #ProgrammingJourney #SoftwareDevelopment #Coding #GitHub #LearnInPublic

One Name, Many Forms (Polymorphism) Polymorphism and Flexibility. Day 11(08-04-2026): One of the coolest words in programming—Polymorphism. At first, the name sounded like something out of a sci-fi movie, but the concept is actually very intuitive. It’s the ability for different objects to be treated as the same "type," or for one "name" to represent different behaviors. A simple example: Both a Dog and a Cat might have a method called speak(). But when you call it, the Dog says "Woof" and the Cat says "Meow." Same command, different output. What I learned: How to use the same function interface for different data types. How this flexibility makes code way more adaptable to change. OOP is officially starting to click. It’s less about "typing" and more about "designing." 🎨 #Polymorphism #PythonDev #Day11 #LearningToCode #ProgrammingLogic

Aria Coding Agents – predictable over smart. That's the one idea behind Aria, a new Open Source family of coding agents we're building at Made Büro. Two tools, one philosophy: Aria Code for Next.js / Nest.js / Node.js and Aria Py for Python projects. Narrow scope. Explicit boundaries. Preview before execution. No hidden automation. https://lnkd.in/dSxt2hGp
