Welcome to the Project-Based Python Learning Course! This repository, curated by dsj7419, is designed to provide a hands-on and engaging approach to learning Python through practical projects. This is a constant work in progress, and is evolving quickly!

This course is structured into different modules, each focusing on a particular topic in Python and associated with a project to provide a practical application of the concepts learned.

• Learners: Navigate through the modules, read the concepts, and work on projects on the course website. Each lesson is available as a separate page, and quizzes are integrated into the web interface for a seamless learning experience.
• Contributors: Feel free to improve existing content, add new projects, or enhance documentation by interacting with the GitHub repository.
