Episode notes

This chapter discusses the challenges and limitations of using Python for mobile and desktop application development. The speakers highlight the need for more community support and resources, while introducing recent initiatives like the Bware project aimed at overcoming these obstacles.

Python performance has come a long way in recent times. And it's often the data scientists, with their computational algorithms and large quantities of data, who care the most about this form of performance. It's great to have Stan Seibert back on the show to talk about Python's performance for data scientists. We cover a wide range of tools and techniques that will be valuable for many Python developers and data scientists.
