Why you need an efficient Python development setup

Hey there,

What many Python developers don't realize is how much having a smooth development setup impacts their productivity.

It takes hard and painstaking work to get a great setup for writing Python—

But having real-time code linting feedback, auto-completion (and even auto-formatting) for your Python code makes it much easier to write clean and Pythonic code.

I've spent north of 100 hours towards perfecting my own Python development setup over the years.

And I'd love to share some of my "productivity secrets" with you:

I just updated my "5 Sublime Text Tweaks to Boost Your Python Productivity" email course.

This is a 5-day course for Python developers wanting to make the most of their development environment.

In this course I'm sharing tips and "war stories" from working in the dev trenches—

Happy Pythoning!
