Hi, I'm Bastien 👋
The creator behind The Python You Need - a platform dedicated to teaching practical Python skills without the academic fluff.
My Story
Like many developers, my journey with Python started with frustration. I was drowning in theoretical tutorials that taught me how to print "Hello World" but left me clueless when it came to solving real problems.
I remember spending weeks trying to scrape financial data for a simple trading strategy, only to find myself lost in a maze of documentation and Stack Overflow threads. The tutorials I found either assumed I was already an expert or were so basic they were useless for real work.
That's when I realized there was a massive gap in Python education. People didn't need another computer science course - they needed practical, actionable skills they could use immediately to solve real problems.
The Mission
Skip the Theory, Focus on Results
No more academic rabbit holes. Every lesson is designed to teach you something you can immediately apply to real projects.
Learn in Bite-Sized Chunks
Quick, practical lessons you can consume during your coffee break. No 3-hour videos or overwhelming textbooks.
What Makes This Different
Real-World Focus
Every example comes from actual problems I've solved in my career - from automating financial data analysis to building trading algorithms.
Copy-Paste Ready Code
No pseudo-code or incomplete examples. You get working scripts you can immediately use and modify for your own projects.
Problem-First Approach
Instead of "here's how Python works," it's "here's how to solve this specific problem you actually have."
Our Growing Community
My Personal Promise to You
I'm committed to creating content that I wish I had when I was starting out. If you're ever frustrated with a tutorial or need help with a specific problem, reach out to me directly. This community is built on real people helping real people.
