Why Beginning Developers Love Python
Manage episode 447795013 series 2574278
Deb Nicholson, executive director of the Python Software Foundation, attributes Python’s popularity to its minimal syntactical complexity, which appeals to beginners and seasoned developers alike. Python allows flexibility for those exploring coding without a specific focus, unlike purpose-built languages. Since her leadership began in 2022, Nicholson has overseen the foundation’s role in managing Python’s fiscal and operational needs, including the package index that hosts over half a million add-ons. This open ecosystem enables contributions from large corporations and individual developers while demanding vigilant security measures.
Nicholson envisions Python's future advancements, particularly in improving multi-threading and expanding usage in mobile development. She acknowledges Python’s critical role in AI and data science but remains cautious about AI’s pervasive application, likening it to a temporary trend. On open source in the enterprise, Nicholson critiques companies profiting from open-source tools while adopting restrictive licenses. Instead, she admires models like Red Hat’s, which leverage open source sustainably without compromising accessibility or innovation.
