Hello there, it's Jack here! I am a big advocate of “Say no to Python/Django”.

I can give many examples but to save time I’ll give just one example. There is a very popular [Python Tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=%5FuQrJ0TkZlc&ref=hackernoon.com) on Youtube by Mosh Hamedani. In this tutorial he explains how Python/Django is used by:

- Youtube
- Instagram
- Spotify
- The Washington Post
- BitBucket

When it comes to the content, he taught us how to build an app of an “Imaginary Grocery Store“ and that too on localhost (not on production-level).

I mean when you’re mentioning billion dollars apps (Instagram, Youtube, Spotify & so on..) then you should be teaching how to code such apps and that too on PRODUCTION-LEVEL!!

Here you can see the app you’ll learn to develop using Python/Django.
