Python Basics

Glossary

• Character - Characters in python are unicode characters. The computer can only store numbers so each character is stored as a number. See sites like [unicode-table.com] to find out what character code corresponds to each character.
• Sequence - In python a sequence is an object that you can iterate over. Strings, lists, the output of range(), are just some examples of sequences.
• Mapping -

We want to get to the point where we do the following as fast as possible.

1. Create a project folder

Running Docker inside WSL with systemd.

Why would you want to do this?

• Because when you run docker desktop for Windows, it will be creating two WSL instances behind the scenes anyway. This will take up more resources than this method.
• Docker desktop attempts to inject the docker commands into your existing WSL instance. It does this through a series of hacks that frankly are just complex and prone to breakage.
• Bind mounts are from Linux to Linux. When you run Docker Desktop on Windows, you are bind mounting from the Windows filesystem to a Linux system. This can make things like hot reloading web frameworks not work very well. (this is because it can't recieve filesystem events when you save the files)

Why is this simpler?

Must have command line utilities

This is my curated list of command line utilities that I can't live without

• neovim - Enough said, you either use neovim, or you don't, I'm not going to tell you to use vim, but if you do, neovim is the way. See my neovim must have plugin list here
• zsh - My shell of choice.
• zoxide - zoxide is a fuzzy matching cd command. It will automatically remember commonly visited directories, and you can jump to them instantly.
• fzf - fzf is a tool which will do fuzzy searching. Many of the other tools I use integrate fzf. For instance, zoxide's zi command uses this. You can also use it in your own shell aliases and scripts.
• starship - Starship is a cross platform shell prompt. I use this so I can have the same prompt no matter which shell I'm using.
• [lsd](https

Neovim must have plugins

This is my curated list of the neovim plugins I can't live without

Note: if you are just starting out, check out kickstart.nvim

• Lazy.nvim - The plugin manager I use. Not to be confused with LazyVim the neovim distribution.
• lspconfig - The must have plugin for configuring LSP support in neovim.
• nvim-cmp - Completion engine for neovim. Without this you won't get autocomplete for anything
• oil.nvim - A magical plugin which lets you browse and edit your files and folders like they are in an editor buffer
