What you will be able to do
Are you feeling discouraged because your apps aren’t communicating?
Get inspired again with our Python API Development course. It dives into building secure, scalable APIs with Python and Flask, connecting your code to powerful databases, and throwing in features like user authentication, email confirmation, and image handling.
By the time you’re done, you’ll not only understand APIs – you’ll own them!
- Build RESTful APIs using Python and Flask.
- Master HTTP methods and status codes.
- Configure secure endpoints with Flask-JWT-Extended.
- Implement database manipulation with SQLAlchemy and ORM.
- Design and manage data models with Marshmallow for serialization.
- Integrate email services like Mailgun for user activation.
- Create image upload and manipulation features with Flask-Uploads and Pillow.
- Optimize API performance using caching and rate-limiting techniques.
- Deploy applications to Heroku and manage environment variables.
- Test API endpoints using tools like curl, httpie, and Postman.
- Use JWT and refresh tokens to develop a user authentication system.
- Retrieve data using pagination, search, and sorting.
- Build a complete recipe management application from scratch.
