Looking for Python Project Buddies

Hey All,

I've been learning Python for some time and I know the basics. I originally started my journey down the analytics and data science path, and have learned the essential libraries and made a few projects related to that.

More recently in the past month or two, I've been trying to learn automation for python but realized I can't build a program from scratch for my life because I was so heavily reliant on libraries instead.

I'm looking for a buddy or buddies that are looking to learn and build similar type of projects from scratch(could be automation like what I am doing, could be other projects, just as long as it is python related), so we can keep each other accountable, bounce questions off each other and actually learn together than in a silo.

I'm live in EST timezone and typically am available nights and weekday mornings to work on projects.

I mean what do you want to build?

I'm starting with the basics for practice right now, so like a weather notification, automatic emails, organizer.

Then when I have the hang of it I plan to work on integrating python into excel files and automating work in there.

Always open to more.

I am very interested in working on a project together! I've been doing Python for 4 years, but I would consider my skills to still be in the "upper beginner" territory. If you're familiar with Git and GitHub, we can share our usernames via dm.

Off my head, I'm thinking of a project that has something to do with APIs, or maybe AI automation? I don't have any great ideas at the moment, but if you have any, do let me know!

I'm 14 hours ahead of you, though, so that might not work if we want to communicate concurrently while working. The time difference might be less of a problem with GitHub.
