I'm focussing this week on finishing my personal portfolio page, which I'm creating using Python's Flask framework. I already integrated my Medium articles inside of my blog (automatically via Medium's RSS feed) and added GitHub facts at the bottom of the landing page.
github.com/DahlitzFlorian/python-p...

Besides that major project I'm doing first attempts of creating GUIs using Python's Tkinter.

Flask is a joy to work with! What do you use for your personal blog?

The blog is integrated in my portfolio. I took a CSS template including blog and portfolio. I didn't want to spend so much time on the blog stuff, so I make a requests against Mediums RSS feed and get my latest blog posts from there. Then I iterate over it and display, whereas the blog entry itself is a link to the Medium article. Medium has everything you need, so I keep blogging there and just display it in my blog. See my latest article for further information and some pictures of the result: medium.com/coding-experiences/13-w...

That's interesting technique! I always wanted to atomically post on Medium and published everywhere. Wonder of DEV will soon support this.
