Python Tools for Visual Studio (PVTS)

The Visual Studio Community edition 2015 seems to bring lot of power to Python programmers. The video on Python Tools for Visual Studio overview is a good place to start.

This is what you need to get started:
Getting started with Python
Python Studio for Visual Studio

You could either try a simple application or a nice web application and publish it on Azure. A tutorial for the latter. link.

My key expectations are on:
1. Unit Test automation
2. Performance Engineering

Happy coding!

My way of learning Python

Here I write about my way of learning Python. It was in 2001 when my friend John suggested to learn Python. He sent some ebooks in CDs, but I could not find any books and ended up learning Perl with support from a library.
After fifteen years, I am back again learning what I had left.
