Simply put, a Python developer is a software engineer who uses Python as a programming language or code to create computer programs. But why choose Python and what can you do after learning Python as a foundational programming language?
Why Choose to Develop with Python?
If you’re thinking about getting into coding and you’re trying to figure out the best first step, look no further than Python. Whether you have some background in coding or are just now exploring the idea of learning to code, Python is a great choice. Python tends to be an easy-to-understand programming language that is versatile enough to build web applications and more. That’s why we teach it at Hackbright Academy. It’s a great universal language on its own, but it’s also exceptionally handy to use as a base to learn other programs.
Because of its versatility in web applications, data science, and machine learning, developers proficient in Python may be in demand in the tech industry. However, it’s not enough just to learn the coding itself; you need to add value to your employer, meaning you should be able to have a basic understanding of a full-stack of front-end technologies (like HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, etc.), ORM libraries (SQLAlchemy, Django, etc.), and, of course, Machine Learning & AI.
Hackbright Academy focuses on Python as a universal foundational language to learn a full-stack of other programming languages.
