Episode #363, published Thu, Apr 28, 2022, recorded Wed, Apr 13, 2022

Are you coming to Python from another language and ecosystem? It can seem a bit daunting at first. But Python is very welcoming and has a massive array of tools and libraries. In this episode, I speak to my friend Cecil Philip who does both Python and .NET development. We discuss what it's like coming to Python from .NET as well as a whole bunch of compare and contrasts across the two ecosystems.
