Looking for People Willing to Write Tutorials
-
I think there is a need for an introduction to Python syntax for beginners. I have been working on a script for this. It is still a work in progress though. I could even turn it into a tutorial:

And here is my intro to programming tutorial:

Hi TutorialDoctor,
I am not sure how useful it is to write another basic Python Tutorial. There are many of these available on the net, including the "official" one at https://docs.python.org/2/tutorial/index.html .
I am hoping to find tutorials for the special features and libs that Pythonista has.

Just a stupid question, but shouldn't the background picture be an iPad instead of a MacBook ;) ?
The layout looks great. -

I noticed that too. There's an iPhone lying next to it, does that count?

@Rosanne couldn't find a good iPad/iPhone stock photo.

I'd love to study the Tutorials.
-
Yeah. I was just sorta showcasing what I have been working on. I am sure there will be plenty of tutorials for the Pythonista libs.
-
@TutorialDoctor I do think there needs to be a section of the site for that too - especially since the forums should primarily be for help.
-
I thought you made that stock photo with your iPhone. It looks like it could be done with one, and a little bit of editing with Snapseed.
-
If we used something wiki-like that would probably work best. Not sure if the infrastructure @ccc has set up is good for that purpose, or if a Wikimedia-based site would be better.
As for me, I'm happy to put my shoulder to the wheel. I suspect to start with I'd just be proofreading and editing. But that's a valuable role, too. (I've spent a lot of happy weeks in Poughkeepsie, NY writing technical books (what we call Redbooks) and more time editing others'.)
I think I'd learn quite a bit in the process.
In other news I see Rocket have ported Python 2.7.x to z/OS so I might be absorbed with trying that on my home system. :-)
