about the subject
Full stack web development requires mastering both good-looking frontend design and reliable backend infrastructure. The SQLAlchemy database toolkit is one of the most popular and powerful tools for writing Python classes and mapping them to your database, whilst the Flask framework is a super-lightweight choice that easily scales up to complex applications. Together, they make a great pairing for full-stack development with Python.
about the video
Talk Python: Building Data-Driven Web Apps with Flask and SQLAlchemy teaches you to build powerful web applications using nothing but Python tools. Rather than building lots of little demo websites, in this self-contained course you’ll learn by building a large and comprehensive web application based on Python's own packaging index. You’ll master important frontend skills such as working with HTML templates, and take advantage of Bootstrap to build well-designed sites with ease. Alongside beautiful server-side code, you’ll learn to map data to and from Python using classes with SQLAlchemy, to add client and server-side validation, and other important backend skills. Best of all, you'll learn a lot of web skills that will translate across the Python web frameworks, as well.
prerequisites
For learners with basic Python skills, and basic HTML/CSS experience.
