30 Days of Python: From Zero to Python Pro

Hemang Yadav — Sat, 15 Mar 2025 11:20:12 +0000

I'm excited to share my ongoing Python learning journey with the developer community! I've created a 30-Day Python Learning Repository that serves as both my personal progress tracker and a resource for others who want to systematically learn Python programming.

What's Inside the Repository?

This carefully structured resource is designed to help beginners build Python skills progressively while giving intermediate learners a great way to review fundamentals. Here's what makes this repository special:

🗓️ Daily Learning Structure

30 organized folders following "Day X - Topic" format
Covers essential Python concepts from basics to advanced topics
Logical progression that builds on previous knowledge
Example topics:
- Day 1: Python Basics
- Day 5: Functions
- Day 15: Decorators
- Day 25: Web Scrapping

📚 Curated Learning Materials

Each daily folder contains:

README.md with:
- 📌 What You'll Learn - Clear learning objectives
- 📂 Files - Code examples and practice templates
- 🏋️ Exercises - Challenging problems with solutions
Cleanly organized code samples
Progressive difficulty in exercises
Real-world application examples

🚀 Key Features

Beginner-Friendly - Starts from absolute basics
Hands-On Approach - Learn by doing with practical exercises
Transparent Progress - Watch skills develop day-by-day
Community Learning - Open for contributions and suggestions
Self-Paced - Suitable for busy schedules

Why This Repository Stands Out

✅ Structured Learning Path

No more jumping between random tutorials! The daily format provides a clear roadmap for mastering Python fundamentals.

✅ Practice-Centric Design

Each day includes practical exercises that reinforce theoretical concepts, helping transform knowledge into real coding skills.

✅ Open Source Collaboration

Learners can:

Compare solutions with others
Suggest alternative approaches
Improve documentation
Add new exercise problems

✅ Progress Tracking

The day-by-day structure makes it easy to:

Visualize your learning journey
Review previous concepts
Measure skill development over time

How to Use This Repository

My Journey with Hacktoberfest 2024

Hemang Yadav — Fri, 18 Oct 2024 10:55:44 +0000

What is Hacktoberfest?

For those who don't know what hacktoberfest is, let me give you a brief overview.

Hacktoberfest is a month long event sponsored by DigitalOcean, Cloudflare, and Quira. The primary function of hacktoberfest is to promote open-source and gather more people to join the community.

How did I come across Hacktoberfest?

After starting my Zem - Series Projects this year, I was deeply motivated with open source and wanted to increase my knowledge of Git and Github. I first saw the word "hacktoberfest" through a blog in September this year. I decided to dig deeper into this topic, and learnt more about Hacktoberfest and how I could register.

How I completed Hacktoberfest?

Opening my first Pull - Request (PR) took me a little bit more time than assumed due to Hacktoberfest's excluded Repositories. I opened my first PR on the repo below in which I uploaded a cofee machine animation through html and css.

https://github.com/you-dont-need/You-Dont-Need-JavaScript/pull/508

I continued to contribute to more open source projects and opening as many PR's as I could. You can view my PRs below:

After submitting enough PRs, I waited impatiently for Hacktoberfest's final review which took about almost 7 days for all my PRs. When my final PR was approved, I earned the last and final badge on Holopin to complete my badges.

What's Next?

After hacktoberfest, I now hope to continue contributing to open source projects as well as making my projects beginner friendly for all users to contribute to!

Hope you found the blog helpful!

How to display Latest Blogs on Github Profile?

Hemang Yadav — Fri, 24 May 2024 12:51:34 +0000

In this post, we will create a Workflow which updates our GitHub Profile with out latest Blogs on dev.to. To do this, you will need:

A GitHub Account
A little of passion

1. SET UP README.MD

The first step in this process, is to define where we want our blogs. To do that, copy paste the following code in your README.md where you want your blogs:

<!-- BLOG-POST-LIST:START -->
<!-- BLOG-POST-LIST:END -->

NOTE: Your blogs will be showing in the middle of the two comments.

2. WORKFLOW

The next step in this process is to create a workflow to update our README.
Create a blog-post-workflow.yml file in the .github/workflows/ directory. Ensure your directory has no typo's!
We now need to write the workflow in the file which we created. Copy paste the code below into that file:

name: 📚Blogs
on:
  schedule:
    # Runs every hour
    - cron: '0 * * * *'
  workflow_dispatch:

jobs:
  update-readme-with-blog:
    name: ✅Update with latest Blogs
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - uses: gautamkrishnar/blog-post-workflow@master
        with:
          max_post_count: "4"
          feed_list: "https://dev.to/feed/YOUR DEV.TO USERNAME HERE"

Remember to add your Dev.to username at the end of the URL on the last line

3. ACTIONS SETTINGS:

Head over to the Settings tap located at the top.

Navigate your way to Actions > General Tab from the left.

Ensure that your settings match the settings below

4. EXECUTING:

Finally, we are ready to run our workflow. To do so, first head over to the Actions tab on the top

Select 📚Blogs from the menu on the left.

Click on the Run workflow dropdown, and click the Run workflow button.

YOUR README SHOULD NOW HAVE BEEN UPDATED WITH YOUR LATEST BLOGS

SUMMARY:

In this blog, we successfully created and executed a workflow to update our Github Profile's README with our latest blogs on Dev.to. For any kind of support, you can refer to the Links section at the top.

Get started with coding a discord bot

Hemang Yadav — Sun, 21 Apr 2024 00:53:02 +0000

How to Code a Discord bot?

👍Prerequisites:

Coding a discord bot might interest you and sound fun, there are some prerequisites to it. In order to code a discord bot with discord.js, you require a fairly decent grasp of JavaScript itself. Although, it is possible to code a discord bot with no or very little information about JavaScript, doing so may result in you taking unnecessary time to solve basic errors in your code and end up frustrated.

So it is highly suggested, you learn some JavaScript basics before moving ahead.

💻STEP 1 - Setting up your workspace:

Note:

If you are using app/website like Replit or Glitch, you can simply skip this step and move on to step 2.

Creating your package.json file

Head over to the terminal of your project or open the folder in which you are going to store your files into command prompt. After that type, npm init in your terminal and the following should come up.

This utility will walk you through creating a package.json file.
It only covers the most common items, and tries to guess sensible defaults.


See `npm help init` for definitive documentation on these fields
and exactly what they do.

Use `npm install <pkg>` afterwards to install a package and
save it as a dependency in the package.json file.

Press ^C at any time to quit.
package name: (The name of your folder)

Right now the computer is asking you to enter the name of your package, which can be anything you want just as “my first discord bot”, “I love bots”, etc. If you press enter on your keyboard, the package name will automatically be named whatever is written in the brackets.
After you have typed your package name or if you want your package name the same as default, press enter on your keyboard.
You should now be prompted to enter the version you want, by default it will be 1.0.0 if you do not enter anything. There is no need for you to enter the version or description. The description will be blank by default.
When you get to the entry point, you can enter anyname you want as long as it ends with .js. The entry point is the main file of your project. You can call it whatever you like as long as it ends with .js. If you leave it blank, the main entry point will be automatically be index.js.
You can skip all of the rest inputs and leave them to default as you are just starting out.

The last option you will get is,

Is this OK? (yes)

When this comes up, simply press enter and the process should be complete. A package.json file should automatically be created in your folder and it will contain all the data such as your package name and entry point.
Now create a new file the same place where the package.json has been created and name it the name of your entry point. If you did not change the default, then your main entry point will be index.js.

😃Step 2 - Add the Code:

Copy Paste the following code in your entry point,

const express = require('express')
const Discord = require('discord.js')
const app = express();

app.listen(3000, () => {
  console.log("Project is running!");
})

const client = new Discord.Client({ intents: 32767 }) 

client.on('messageCreate', async (message) => {
  if (message.content === "ping") {
    message.channel.send('pong')
  }
})

client.login('YOUR BOT TOKEN HERE')

Remember to replace YOUR BOT TOKEN HERE with the actual token of your bot which can be obtained from the developer portal

🥇Step 3 - Running your project

You are now ready to run your project. To do that, type the following in the terminal,

node .

As soon as your run your project, your discord bot should appear online and send pong whenever someone types ping.
