👋 Welcome to the Foundational Python Course Discussions

This space is for building and improving the Foundational Python Course together. Use it to:
• Propose ideas for new lessons or exercises.
• Give feedback on existing modules (what’s clear, what’s confusing, what’s missing).
• Share examples of how you teach or explain Python concepts.
• Suggest tools, resources, or best practices that could make the course stronger.

Getting Started

Introduce yourself below. Share your background in Python or teaching, and how you’d like to contribute to shaping this course.

Our goal is to make this repo a collaborative hub where veterans and developers co-create an effective path for learning Python.

Hey Brad here... started with python about 15 years back and after focusing on JS for the last 7 years looking at getting back into Python more. I would imagine touching on some of the libraries in Python like pandas and NumPy and also creating a web scraper would be good.
