Course Overview
Let's Build A Cool App With Python 3!
In this course we'll be using Python 3 to build a couple of different Crypto Currency portfolio apps that pull information from the CoinMarketCap .com free API and display them in a graphical user interface app.
This course is great for people who want to expand their Python skillset, as well as people interested in crypto currencies and crypto currency trading.
Your finished app will be able to track current prices of any crypto currency that you specify, giving you price data as well as other related data.
Do You Need To Know Python To Take This Course?
Strictly speaking, no. But I highly recommend that you understand the basics of the Python programming language before taking this course.

The structure of the course is not good. John miss the line of thought a lot. At this exact moment, I am trying to reach for a lot of answers in google/youtube cause the content is incomplete or outdated

I came up with most of the new codes myself, but of course couldn't start it from scratch which what this course did. Not a boring lecturer tho.

It was a great course! it's not my first course of this type and i've watched John Elder's free courses on youtube too. I love how John explains things and i've subscribed to his website too. He is one of the best online programming teachers out there. If you wanna learn python, ruby on rails and a lot more, you can't go wrong with him.

I thoroughly enjoyed this course, as a newbie to Python this course has definitely given me confidence to move forward and continue to learn more about the language. John explains ideas and concepts in a way that is easy to understand. He has good timing and pace with his lectures.
