At PyCon 2009, Steve Holden suggested building a site for people who wish to learn Python.
We already have BeginnersGuide, but it's buried in the wiki and is pretty dense text.
Possible names
- Python 101
- Starting Python
We should probably avoid 'Learning Python', since that's an O'Reilly book title.
Content
The site would primarily link to resources, so its page architecture would mostly be pretty shallow.
What's Python? -- like BeginnersGuide/Overview.
- Starting Points -- documentation, tutorials, downloads
- Tools -- links to IDEs, distributions, (hosting services?)
- Libraries -- PyPI; commonly-used libraries
- Books -- list of introductory books
- Videos -- link to relevant introductory tutorials
- The Community -- user groups, conferences
