Frequently Asked Questions

Should I learn Django or FastAPI?

We teach both because they serve different needs. Django is great for full applications with admin panels and built-in features. FastAPI excels at high-performance APIs. Knowing both makes you versatile.

Do I need to know Python first?

Yes, you need solid Python fundamentals—functions, classes, file handling. If you're not confident, take our Python course first. We offer a discount for combined enrollment.

Is Python backend still relevant with Node.js around?

Absolutely. Python backends power Instagram, Spotify, Dropbox, and countless enterprises. Django and FastAPI are growing faster than ever. Companies value Python for its readability and the vast data/ML ecosystem.
