Reactive Web Dashboards with Shiny

Tue, 18 Jun 2024 00:00:00 -0800

There are dozens of ways to build web applications in Python. You can use Django or FastAPI with a Javascript front-end, or build a simple dashboard using a tool like Streamlit. However, almost all of the python web app frameworks are event-driven and require you to manually manage callback functions and application state. Shiny uses transparent reactive programming to let you build efficient dashboards and applications without the headaches. Shiny automatically detects the relationships between application components and uses those relationships to minimally re-rennder the app. In this course you will learn how to use Shiny to build a simple dashboard, and also the essential concepts which will allow you to build more ambitious applications in Shiny.

Getting Started with NLP and spaCy

Fri, 10 May 2024 00:00:00 -0800

There is a lot of text data out there and maybe you're interested in getting structured data out of it. Maybe you can make do without machine learning for this, but you might also consider using LLMs to help you with this. There are a lot of options out there and this course will introduce you to the field by focussing on spaCy while also exploring other tools. As a motivation example, we'll have a look at the transcripts from the Talk Python podcast to see if we can automatically detect Python packages from it. We'll clean the data, explore it with spaCy, and training custom models. By the end of the course, you'll understand how to set up a proper NLP project and we'll also explore techniques beyond spaCy.

Rock Solid Python with Python Typing

Wed, 06 Mar 2024 00:00:00 -0800

When Python was originally invented way back in 1989, it was a truly dynamic and typeless programming language. But that all changed in Python 3.5 when type "hints" were added to the language. Over time, amazing frameworks took that idea and ran with it. They build powerful and type safe(er) frameworks. Some of these include Pydantic, FastAPI, Beanie, SQLModel, and many many more. In this course, you'll learn the ins-and-outs of Python typing in the language, explore some popular frameworks using types, and get some excellent advice and guidance for using types in your applications and libraries.

Visual Studio Code for Python Developers

Sun, 19 Nov 2023 00:00:00 -0800

It's official: Visual Studio Code is the most popular way Python developers write Python code [1]. In 2022, 37% of Python devs and data scientists reported VS Code as their primary editor/IDE, followed by a close second with PyCharm and then nothing else close. People choose VS Code because it's clean and simple. But that simplicity belies a massive amount of functionality that is out there to discover. That's the goal of this course, to take you from simply using VS Code to really leveraging its true potential.

Fundamentals of Dask

Tue, 27 Jul 2021 00:00:00 -0800

The Python data science stack, consisting of tools like pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn, and many more is extremely powerful, but it rarely leverages the parallel computing potential of modern hardware. Dask can help bridge this gap. Dask has a flexible and familiar API that integrates seamlessly with the PyData ecosystem. It parallelizes your favorite tools and allows you to scale your workflow quickly. And that’s just the beginning! Dask also provides a complete framework for distributed computing in Python that powers specialized tools like PyTorch and RAPIDS. This course will teach you how to parallelize everything from array computations to general Python code with Dask and even perform distributed machine learning to train models at scale.

Getting started with Dask

Thu, 29 Apr 2021 00:00:00 -0800

While pandas is one of the true pillars of Python's data science tech stack, there will be times when you outgrow it. For example, if you need to leverage all 16 cores on your system rather than just 1 to get an answer much faster or if you have more data than will fit into your RAM, or even onto your disk. That's where Dask comes to the rescue. It has an API that is broadly compatible with pandas' but scales Python computation across cores, and across computers to bring you blazing fast analysis of data that exceeds what any single computer can handle. That’s just the beginning! Dask is a free and open source library that helps scale your data science workflows and provides a complete framework for distributed computing in Python. This course will get you up to speed with Dask and show you how to easily convert pandas workloads to blazing Dask clusters (locally across cores or scaled-out across cloud servers). Future courses will get you up to speed with Dask and Pythonic distributed computation in other settings, such as machine learning.

Modern Python Projects

Mon, 15 Mar 2021 00:00:00 -0800

There's a long way from writing your first print("hello world") to shipping a Python application. Installing new packages without breaking others, choosing the best tools that will still be maintained in a few years, figuring out what's the "Pythonic" code that everyone keeps talking about, moving files around to avoid import errors, writing tests even when you don't have time, or making sure that your documentation is up to date - those are some of the struggles that you might encounter. This course helps you solve those problems. It takes you through all the steps of a typical Python project - from setting up a good project structure, managing dependencies, adding tests, writing documentation, setting up continuous integration, and finally - deploying it.

Full Web Apps with FastAPI

Tue, 09 Mar 2021 00:00:00 -0800

FastAPI has burst on to the Python web scene. In fact, the 2020 PSF developer survey shows FastAPI going from off the radar to the 3rd most popular and fastest growing framework for Python developers. People discovering FastAPI are thrilled with it's toolchain for building APIs. But they wonder if they will need to build a parallel app in Flask or Django for the HTML side of their site. This course is here to show you that you do not need a second browser-oriented framework: FastAPI is a fantastic framework for HTML-oriented content and static content. That's what this course is all about. You'll learn to build full web apps with FastAPI, equivalent to what you can do with Flask or Django. And it's an amazing framework with even more features than those older, more established frameworks.

Modern APIs with FastAPI and Python

Thu, 26 Nov 2020 00:00:00 -0800

FastAPI is one of the most exciting new web frameworks out today. It's exciting because it leverages more of the modern Python language features than any other framework: type hints, async and await, dataclasses, and much more. If you are building an API in Python, you have many choices. But, to us, FastAPI is the clear choice going forward. And this course will teach you everything you need to know to get started. We'll build a realistic API working with live data and deploy that API to a cloud server Linux VM. In fact, you'll even see how to create proper HTML web pages to augment your API all within FastAPI.

Write Pythonic Code Like a Seasoned Developer

Tue, 21 Jun 2016 00:00:00 -0800

This course will take you on a tour of over 50 of the more popular and useful code examples demonstrating Pythonic code. In the examples, you'll first see non-Pythonic code and then the more natural Pythonic version. One of the special concepts in Python is the idea of writing idiomatic code that is most aligned with the language features and ideals. In Python, we call this idiomatic code Pythonic. While this idea is easy to understand, it turns out to be fairly hard to make concrete. Topics covered include the expansive use of dictionaries, hacking Python's memory usage via slots, using generators, comprehensions, and generator expressions, creating subsets of collections via slices (all the way to the database) and many more.
