The Well-Grounded Python Developer teaches you how to write real software in Python by building on the basic language skills you already have. Veteran developer Doug Farrell helps you see the big picture you can create out of small pieces, introducing concepts like modular construction, APIs, and the design of a basic web server. Throughout the book, you’ll practice your skills by building a blogging platform—the kind of web app that’s in high demand by modern businesses. When you’re finished, you’ll have gone from having a basic understanding of Python's syntax, grammar, and libraries to using them as the tools of a professional software developer.
