- Writing web robots in Python has been popular for two decades. In 2022, articles about httpx and using Python
requestswith BeautifulSoup highlighted two new ways of collecting and analyzing data from websites.
- There has never been a more exciting time in packaging Python. Sumantro Mukherjee demonstrated how to package a new Python module in 4 steps, and I covered modern packaging tools.
- From learning to production, from code to package, code evolves. One of the best ways to make sure it evolves well is to use automated checkers like Thoth or PyLint.
