Overview of this book

Python is a multipurpose language that can be used for multiple use cases. Python for Geeks will teach you how to advance in your career with the help of expert tips and tricks. You'll start by exploring the different ways of using Python optimally, both from the design and implementation point of view. Next, you'll understand the life cycle of a large-scale Python project. As you advance, you'll focus on different ways of creating an elegant design by modularizing a Python project and learn best practices and design patterns for using Python. You'll also discover how to scale out Python beyond a single thread and how to implement multiprocessing and multithreading in Python. In addition to this, you'll understand how you can not only use Python to deploy on a single machine but also use clusters in private as well as in public cloud computing environments. You'll then explore data processing techniques, focus on reusable, scalable data pipelines, and learn how to use these advanced techniques for network automation, serverless functions, and machine learning. Finally, you'll focus on strategizing web development design using the techniques and best practices covered in the book. By the end of this Python book, you'll be able to do some serious Python programming for large-scale complex projects.

Learning requirements for web development

Developing a web application includes building UI, routing user requests or user actions to application endpoints, translating the user input data, writing business logic for user requests, interacting with the data layer to read or write data, and serving the results back to users. All these development components may require different platforms and sometimes even use different programming languages for implementation. In this section, we will understand the components and tools required for web development, starting with web application frameworks or web frameworks.

Web frameworks

Developing web applications from scratch is time-consuming and tedious. To make it convenient for web developers, web application frameworks were introduced in the very early days of web development. Web frameworks provide a set of libraries, directory structures, reusable components, and deployment tools. Web frameworks typically follow an architecture that...
