Python Developer Roadmap: The Essential Skills You Need to Know

Roadmap to becoming a Python developer. Master the skills and knowledge you need to become a successful Python developer. This roadmap covers everything from the basics of Python to advanced topics such as machine learning and web development.

📙 20 Best Python Books for Beginners and Experienced Coders

Roadmap to becoming a Python developer: Below you can find a chart demonstrating the paths that you can take and the libraries that you would want to learn to become a Python developer. I made this chart as a tip for everyone who asks me, "What should I learn next as a Python developer?"

Disclaimer

The purpose of this roadmap is to give you an idea about the landscape. The road map will guide you if you are confused about what to learn next, rather than encouraging you to pick what is hype and trendy. You should grow some understanding of why one tool would be better suited for some cases than the other and remember hype and trendy does not always mean best suited for the job.
