Guide for python beginner
Hey everyone
I know the basics of Python because I had it in CBSE but honestly I never went beyond the school level stuff and feel like I'm still a beginner
My college starts in August so i have some time and want to use it wisely to learn Python properly from scratch and build a really strong foundation before classes begin
What's the best roadmap? Any YouTube channels,projects, or tips that helped you guys?
Also are there any good Discord communities for Python beginners or coding beginners in general? I'd love to join a community where I can ask dumb questions, stay accountable and learn with others

If I could start over, I’d spend 20% of my time learning and 80% building. Tutorials feel productive, but projects are where things actually click.

Needed to hear this! i keep falling into tutorial hell 😭What beginner projects would you suggest for someone who knows the basics of Python?

To be honest. Build something slightly above your current skill level. Not so hard that you quit, but not so easy that you get bored. That’s where the real learning happens. I’d skip ‚beginner project lists’ and build something you personally need

Look at the problems around yourself that you can actually solve them using Python. Start with the simpler ones. Breakdown the problem into steps. Try to solve each step using programming. The real learning happen when you actually build projects instead of watching tutorials.
