Not having (complete) docs earlier has been a miss!
And with AI, it's now easier to fix than ever.
Last week we added the whole suite to our @Pybites platform 👇
No more people abandoning the app because it's unclear how it works. 😱
What makes up the 2026 #Python stack?
Why are uv, ruff, FastAPI, Typer, and SQLModel widely adopted by developers that want to have an ergonomic and performant toolset?
What methodologies do we use in our teaching to help you write clean/ robust code consistently?
I feel that it's safe to say that every Python dev here has faced this error at some point:
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get'
Somewhere, somehow, a function returned None when you expected data.
"Rust is too hard."
I hear this constantly from Python developers. The borrow checker. Lifetimes. Ownership. It sounds intimidating.
Here's the truth: Rust is different, not harder.
I love how we go deep into Rust core features in our Scripter to Rust cohort.
Code example that came up:
Learning #Rust made me a better #Python programmer.
Not because I write Rust at work. Because Rust forced me to think about things I'd been ignoring and I never realized this fact.
Your favorite #Python 🐍 libraries are lying to you.
• `pip install orjson` - that's Rust.
• `pip install polars` - Rust.
• `pip install cryptography` - Rust.
• `pip install pydantic` - the core is Rust.
• `pip install ruff` - Rust again.
The difference between a Junior and Senior dev isn't syntax. It's this.
Most developers can write a script to fetch data from an API. They get it to work, then they move on.
We just shipped a new SQLModel Learning Path on the Pybites Platform:
🔹 Learn the Python ORM to focus on next
🔹 Get type-safe models with Pydantic-style, high-performance validation
🔹 See how cleanly SQLModel plugs into FastAPI for real-world APIs
🐍 Pythonista → 🦀 Rustacean?
I’ve built a Rust Cohort for Pythonistas with Jim Hodapp, a 6-week, project-driven journey where you’ll:
Build a real JSON parser, in Rust 🏗️
Watching 10 hours of video tutorials makes you a viewer, not a coder.
Passive consumption is the "silent killer" of engineering careers.
And after talking to hundreds of developers over the years, it's still all too common. 😱
Really enjoyed my chat with Kishan Patel on our @pybites podcast.
We also took 40% off the Pybites Platform subscriptions.
No shiny objects syndrome. Just deliberate practice and shipping code.
If you've been waiting to join a cohort, this is the time. We won't do this again soon.

We decided to do something different for #BlackFriday
Instead of selling you "content," we're discounting "accountability."
For the first time, we've slashed the price on our #Python Snipster (Intermediate) and Foundations (Beginner) cohorts (30-35% off).
Did you know you can search our #Python content from the command line?
It's one of our open source libraries called `pybites-search`
Easy to run (alias) using uvx:
Tired of tutorials that don’t go anywhere?
👉 Start implementing these kind of patterns in our 6-week Snipster program:
pybitescoaching.com
One of my favorite design patterns: the Repository Pattern. 😍
It keeps business logic separate from the data layer. 📈
Need to swap SQL for CSV or add an API backend later? Plug it in, the interface stays the same.
Example below 👇
I solved a Bite today and used collections.Counter() 🙂
Good reminder: the right data structure saves a lot of code. 🐍
In this case: apart from a small helper function, you get the top stock by symbol using most_common()
Clean, fast, readable. 🚀
One of our PDI clients is building a time tracker app with SQLModel + Flask.
It started simple, then grew as he hit real-world edge cases. That’s where the real dev learning happens:
⏱️ Format times
⛔ Avoid duplicates
🛠️ Handle errors clearly
What are you building this week?
Heads up I am running another Snipster #Python training cohort next week - we'll build this cool app:
I've completed "User input" on @pybites.bsky.social 🐍🎉 - pybitesplatform.com/bites/user-i...
Tutorials are clean — but real code is messy. 💡
Our coaching cohort helps you thrive in the wild 💪
• write tests, refactor with confidence
• debug real issues
• build an efficient dev toolkit
• collaborate using Git/GitHub
• ship code you’re proud of

#Python #Developer
You’ve done 100 Python 🐍 exercises. Now what? 🤔
Building a real app still feels out of reach. 😮
That’s where our cohorts come in - we guide you from confusion to confidence, project by project. 💪 🚀
Thanks for joining us 🎧 @tiangolo.com 🎉 and for all you do with @fastapi.tiangolo.com, other libs, and now FastAPI Cloud 😍
It will be so nice to deploy FastAPI apps with just: `fastapi deploy` 🚀

I've completed "Build unix' wc program in python" on @pybites.bsky.social 🐍🎉 - pybitesplatform.com/bites/build-...
I've completed "Pybites date generator" on @pybites.bsky.social 🐍🎉 - pybitesplatform.com/bites/pybite...
#python
👨🏫 Want in?
The main cohort is full, but beginner spots are still open (or join the waiting list for the next intermediate one)
Check it out here 👉 pybitescoaching.com
🚀 Built a #Streamlit front-end on top of a #FastAPI backend for our next cohort (starting next week!) 🚀
Great stack for quickly prototyping a front-end, all #Python, no JS 😎
(For more serious web apps you definitely want JS and/or htmlx though 💡)
