Full Stack Development with Python: Complete Modules and Roadmap

Full stack development with Python involves learning the frontend, backend, databases, version control, and deployment to build and deploy web applications effectively. Here’s a detailed roadmap:

1. Fundamentals of Programming

Modules:

Python Basics: Variables, data types, operators, and control flow.

Object  Oriented Programming (OOP): Classes, objects, inheritance, and polymorphism.

File Handling: Reading and writing files in Python.

Exception Handling: Try, except, finally.

Tools: Python 3.x, Jupyter Notebook, or any IDE (VS Code/PyCharm).

2. Frontend Development

– HTML5:

– Semantic elements (header, footer, article).

– Forms, multimedia (audio/video), and canvas.

– CSS3:
