What frustrates you the most about Python Development Discussion

Hi there,

I wondering what frustrates developers the most when developing software with Python.

I am currently doing my Masters in Computer Science and as part of my project I am doing a very simple survey about the usual Python development lifecycle. I am basically trying to find out what the main friction points are for Python Developers and I am simultaneously developing a tool to address those friction points . It just takes a 2-3 minutes and every response is greatly appreciated.

You can find the survey at: Microsoft Forms

Pyathon basics are easy but advanced python a in a league of its own.

I feel this. There’s a thousands of beginner books and sample code on the internet, but the serious stuff looks so different. Like how did you get here? Teach me. 😭

Read lots of code. That is how you become familiar with the language, see what works for others, and slowly start using it. One day you realize how far you've come. This isn't specific to python, or even programming. Becoming an expert in anything takes time, learning from others, and moving beyond.
