Visual Studio Advanced Features Part 2 and Python and Flask - Part 1 - by millionlights
Hello everyone! Welcome to the 38th episode of Microsoft hour of code brought to you by millionlights. Millionlights is a TV channel dedicated to improving skills of people and their employability.
Now, let me tell you more about Microsoft hour of code. Microsoft hour of code is a series of lectures, courses and talks by experts, who are going to discuss the latest Microsoft technologies, topics related to programming and industry forecasts that are all focused on employability.
Today, we are going to learn visual studio advanced feature. This course is basically for people pursuing computer science. These episodes have everything you need to upgrade your skills and help you to develop your own application. This content has been created by our partner Microsoft. We have Steven Borg and Rennie with us from Microsoft who is going to talk about everything, you need to know about visual studio.
Discover ways to use the advanced features and tools in Visual Studio Enterprise, to design and build apps that are ready for modern continuous integration and delivery pipelines. If you’re working with legacy code, find out how to more easily transform older apps into modern ones. Explore different versions of Visual Studio, see how to build well-architected software, learn how to determine the root cause of bugs, look at performance testing and tuning, and much more.
Now, let’s move towards the course.
In the previous episode we covered:-
Introduction
Design
Debug- overview and demonstration
Test- overview.
In this episode we will cover:-
Test-demonstration
Tune-overview and Tune-demonstration in which we will learn Application performance is critical to the success of nearly all applications. Learn how to use Web Performance testing and Load Testing to find performance bottlenecks and identify opportunities.
And, Release through which we will understand how release management can dramatically simplify the creation of CI/CD pipelines that include build, unit test, package, deploy, and integration testing steps.
So, let’s get started.
Welcome back to the 38th episode of Microsoft hour of code brought to you by millionlights.
As you know we are going to begin with python and flask. We have Susan Ibach and Christopher Harrison from Microsoft to show us how to create webpages.
We will go through the foundation of Flask and Python, explore user input and data storage, and learn to create and retrieve Redis data. We’ll see some demos, from a basic "Hello, world" intro to an Azure deployment, and leave with the website we have built.
Some of you must be thinking what stuffs you can do with python and flask. Well, you can pretty much automate a lot of stuff like schedule your computer to do certain task. If you know flask python framework then you can build a complete clone of any web app you think of.
As we always say that these courses are not only beneficial for students but also for working professionals. So, if you have these skills. You can be software engineer, software developer, data scientist etc. and earn from 5 to 10 lakhs and with experience, you can get more as well.
Before we start the session, be sure to download these free tools: Visual Studio Community and Python Tools for Visual Studio, to get the most out of the course, If you're a student, you have access to Visual Studio Professional 2013, for free, through DreamSpark.
Now, let’s move towards the course. The topics we will cover in this course are:-
• Introduction to Flask
• Webpages using Flask
• Web Interface
• Data Storage Locations
• Using Redis
• Using Redis and Flask on Azure
• Recommended Resources & Next Step
In this part of the series we will cover
Introduction to Flask in which we will learn, how to get started and why one would use Flask to create websites. A walk through the standard “Hello, world!” demonstration, and close with a primer on HTML.
That’s all in this episode of this course. I hope this tutorial was helpful. In the next episode we will continue with the same course, beginning websites with python and flask and cover the remaining topics.
