Use Python to build apps and work with data
Python Development Techdegree - Treehouse's online coding bootcamp for Python developers
Built on the Treehouse Learning Platform
Techdegree is built on the Treehouse learning style, with interactive videos, workspaces, quizzes and more.
Real-world Projects
After completing Techdegree, you’ll have a well-rounded portfolio of projects to demonstrate your newly-acquired expertise.
Interactive Quizzes And Code Challenges
Test your knowledge with quizzes or test out of subjects you've already mastered. Plus, use Treehouse's interactive Workspaces to create staging environments for the code you write.
In-depth Code Reviews
Peer reviews are an integral part of the Techdegree experience. Real-world job roles often require a lot of reviewing other people’s code and design—once you graduate Techdegree, you’ll have experience giving and receiving feedback.

A Store Inventory
Build a console application that loads an existing store's inventory data from a CSV file into a Sqlite database. The application will allow a user to interact with the records stored in the database to view existing records, add new items, and backup/export the existing state of the database into a CSV file.
Build a Learning Journal with Flask
Create a web application using HTML, CSS, and Flask, a popular framework for Python web development. The web application, a personal learning journal, lets a user add and edit journal entries and store the results in a database. The result is a useful, blog-like web application.
