Who this book is for
This book is for experienced programmers who want to improve their skills by completing professional-level Python projects. It’s also for developers who need to display their skills by demonstrating a portfolio of work.
This is not intended as a tutorial on Python. This book assumes some familiarity with the language and the standard library. For a foundational introduction to Python, consider Learn Python Programming, Third Edition: https://www.packtpub.com/product/learn-python-programming-third-edition/9781801815093.
The projects in this book are described in broad strokes, requiring you to fill in the design details and complete the programming. Each chapter focuses more time on the desired approach and deliverables than the code you’ll need to write. The book will detail test cases and acceptance criteria, leaving you free to complete the working example that passes the suggested tests.
