Interactive Python Learning Platform¶
Overview¶
An all-in-one learning hub that delivers progressive Python lessons through both a guided CLI and a hostable Flask web interface. Lessons combine narrative walkthroughs, executable code examples, mini quizzes, and follow-up practice ideas geared toward aspiring quantitative developers.
Quickstart (CLI)¶
Features of the CLI experience: - Step-by-step sections with narration and code snippets - Inline quizzes with instant explanations - Practice prompts and follow-up resources at the end of each lessonHost the Web Experience¶
Then visithttp://127.0.0.1:5000/ in your browser. The web UI mirrors the CLI lessons with collapsible sections and quiz answers surfaced for self-paced study. You can deploy the Flask app on any platform that supports WSGI (Heroku, Railway, Fly.io, Render, etc.).
Deployment Tips¶
- Set
FLASK_APP="UTILS - Learning Platform/learning_platform_web.py" - Use
flask run --host=0.0.0.0 --port=$PORTon hosting providers - Pin dependencies using the root
requirements.txt
Lesson Library¶
Lessons live in content.py and can be extended by adding new Lesson entries. Each lesson includes:
- Title, difficulty, and estimated completion time
- Objectives, section-by-section prose, and example code
- Optional quizzes (QuizQuestion) with explanations
- Practice prompts and follow-up resources
