From Zero to Flask
The Professional Way
Learn Flask Development using the latest Flask version 1.0.2 / Updated January 2019
This course will teach you, assuming no prior coding knowledge, how to develop back end web applications the way professional coders do in the top internet startups. How do I know this? Because I’ve been leading tech teams in both large enterprise as well as startup companies in New York City for the past 15 years.
I have seen a lot of courses and free tutorials and I can tell you 90% of them just teach bad habits while promising to turn you into a real “web developer”.
This course doesn’t promise to turn you into a professional back end developer after you complete it it takes much more than the 4 hours of of this course (and probably hundreds of hours of self-practicing) to do that, but it will give you a solid foundation from where to start and continue your training, knowing the right path to become a real professional backend web applications developer using Python.
The course goes through a step by step process of setting up your environment, introducing Flask. It then moves to explore SQL databases, using MySQL and finally showing you how to develop a blogging application using all these learnings.
Best of all, you don’t need to own a computer to take this course, if you don’t own one. You can complete this course from an internet or cyber cafe, as we teach how to to use both locally installed files or an online coding platform.
At the end of the course students will be challenged with a final project where all the course material will need to be used to complete it. Students that finish the final project will be eligible for special future promotions.
If you are interested in learning how to code from zero and without prior knowledge, but do it using best industry practices towards becoming a professional backend web developer, this is the course for you.
The course is divided in 7 sections:
Introduction
Your Development Environment
Say Hello World
Setting up our Database
A Visitor Counter
Flogger: A Personal Blog Application
Final Project
The course has more than 4 hours of video tutorials as well as the source code of all the lessons, so that you can see exactly what the whole project looks like in each stage.
The course can take anywhere from 7 days to a month to complete based on how much material the student completes daily.
Additionally we’re constantly updating the course, adding contents thanks to the feedback of our students.
So stop looking around and start the right path to becoming a professional Python backend web developer with this course.

So far is good, would like for the resources to be "ready" to use, but I guess that has to do with changes in the requirements as new versions are release.

web development
When you finish the course, you will have no more insight into web development than you started with.
What this course provides is a foundation that allows you to understand the basics of web development using Flask and Python as well as enough knowledge to know how to ask the right questions and how to understand where bugs are.
If this course is on your wishlist and it's on sale for $10 (USD), just buy it :) The course is basically an introduction to backend web development using Flask and MySQL.
The motivation for using Python for Web Development is very well explained.

for beginners
This course is good for beginners who are new to python and flask.
Conclusion: Despite there being a python basics chapter, this class is not for beginners.
too complicate for beginners.
very nice Very good for beginners without giving an overload of ultimately useless information.
Good for beginners The course looks good after watching 3 or 4 videos.

follow along
The topics were covered in depth and I was able to follow along very well.
It's very nice that Jorge shows you how a professional developer arranges his code, but it is very difficult to follow along at times because he doesn't explain many of the concepts.
Unlike many courses in which the instructor seems to be racing to get to the end of the section, the pace of the explanation makes it easy to follow along so that you understand the functionality completely by the end of the module.
Easy to follow along and helpfull to have the files availabe with each lesson.

jorge does
Jorge does an amazing job of stepping through all the key components of Flask and building a sizable application with it.
Jorge does an excellent job of teaching.
best practices
We have it working pretty well but I knew I had some gaps, especially when it comes to organizing an application using the MVC model, and best practices in general.
For example, when bringing in some new module, let's have a video or two talking about it, how it's used, what it does, what it won't do, caveats, best practices, how it's evolved, what problems it solves, etc.
Looking for tips and best practices used in a professional environment.
