Hi, my name is Alan. I’m in my seventh semester of the BSD program, and am planning on graduating next year. I took this course mainly because I am interested in learning new things. I want to expand my knowledge, and this course seems like a challenging yet rewarding way of learning practical skills I can apply throughout my career. Open Source is completely new to me, so I am excited to see what it has in store.

Like I mentioned before, I hope to learn as much as I can this term. I want to gain more experience in an environment that will encourage me to study new things, and I want to work on projects that help me explore new ideas.

The GitHub repository I researched was primarily about Python frameworks and other related resources. It was the first one that stuck out to me; I previously took a course on Python, but my experience with it is quite limited. That is why I explored this repository to try and see if it could convince me to try developing using Python. After all, doesn’t ‘awesome-python’ sound enticing?

Hi Alan,

Good luck with the blogging and your course. You may find the content in the Awesome Python repo a little overwhelming, and it might be helpful to try one or two frameworks rather than try and learn everything. There are great in-depth articles at FreeCodeCamp that cover building apps with popular frameworks like Django and Flask.
