Ever wonder what's actually inside Google Maps? Turns out you can build a surprisingly capable version yourself, in a single Python file. We just published a breakdown of Dash Navigation, a working maps + turn-by-turn routing app built entirely on open data: - OpenStreetMap for street geometry, speed limits, and road names - Custom-rendered map tiles (Leaflet) instead of a commercial tile server - Auto-generated turn-by-turn directions from raw intersection geometry The whole thing runs with one command, downloads its own map data on first launch, and deploys as easily as any other Dash app, using Plotly Cloud. The code is open source, and the app is running live if you want to point it at your own city.

Microsoft just dropped Agent Framework 1.0 for .NET and Python, and the timing is wild. It lands seven months after the framework race went full sprint—LangGraph, OpenAI Agents SDK, Claude Agent SDK, Google ADK, Pydantic AI, CrewAI, and Mastra all shipped major updates between February and August 2026. That's not a release cycle; that's a land grab. The interesting part isn't the SDK itself. It's the runtime. Microsoft is betting on production readiness over experimentation. While others focus on flexibility, this framework aims to be the boring, reliable choice—the one you can put in front of a customer without crossing your fingers. What does that mean for builders? The real differentiator is no longer the ability to chain LLM calls. It's observability, error handling, and deployment paths. If you're evaluating frameworks, don't compare feature lists. Compare how each handles a failed tool call at 2 AM. One practical takeaway: pick a framework that matches your team's existing stack. Python teams have a dozen options; .NET teams finally have a first-class choice. That alone might justify the switch. Which framework are you betting on for production, and what made you choose it?

🚀 Started My Machine Learning Journey with My First End-to-End Project! I've recently started learning Machine Learning, and to put my learning into practice, I built a Food Delivery Time Prediction application. Instead of stopping at training a model, I wanted to build a complete application where users can interact with it through a web interface. 🛠 Tech Stack Frontend: React.js + Vite Backend: FastAPI (Python) Machine Learning: Linear Regression (Scikit-learn) Model Serialization: Joblib What I Learned ✅ Building REST APIs with FastAPI ✅ Connecting a React frontend with a Python backend ✅ Training and serving an ML model ✅ Building an end-to-end ML application I know this is just the beginning. The current model uses Linear Regression on a static dataset, while real-world delivery prediction depends on factors like traffic, weather, rider availability, and more. Next Steps Try Random Forest and XGBoost Integrate Google Maps and Weather APIs Dockerize and deploy the application Improve the UI and overall prediction accuracy 🔗 GitHub: https://lnkd.in/dD4PVsfa 🌐 Live Demo: https://lnkd.in/dNMPsQ9C I'd love to hear your feedback or suggestions as I continue learning and building! #MachineLearning #Python #FastAPI #ReactJS #ScikitLearn #FullStackDevelopment #SoftwareEngineering #LearningInPublic #StudentDeveloper

🚀 Hi Power Platform Enthusiasts!! 🚀 Recently I've been working on migrating data 📊 from Azure SQL into Dataverse, and while looking around for the right approach I discovered Microsoft now has an official Dataverse SDK for Python 🐍✨ Turns out it's not just for migrations 🔄 - it's built to support automation ⚙️, AI-driven workflows 🤖, and data analysis 📈 on top of Dataverse. Feels like a big step in making Dataverse more accessible beyond traditional Power Platform development! I'm not a Python developer myself 🙋, so since we're in the AI era 🌐, I had Claude set up the whole thing for me - install, connection, everything ✅. What's neat is the SDK comes with two built-in Claude Skills 🧠 (dataverse-sdk-use and dataverse-sdk-dev) that guide the AI to follow Microsoft's recommended patterns instead of just guessing 🎯. So even without knowing Python, I could still get a working setup done right! 💪 Still early days on my actual migration 🚧, but this was a nice discovery along the way which I wanted to share🙌 Official docs here 📄: https://lnkd.in/ebd73Xcs

Built and deployed my first end-to-end Python Price Tracker & Delta Alert Engine! I wanted to build a practical utility that goes beyond basic web scraping and handles real-world state persistence and alert management. Over the last few days, I built a complete 3-tier automated system: 🔹 Ingestion: Scrapes live e-commerce product pages using BeautifulSoup & Requests. 🔹 Persistence Layer: Logs historical runs into a structured dataset using pandas to track price variance over time. 🔹 Alert Engine: Encrypts network handshakes using Python’s smtplib (TLS) to fire instant email notifications strictly when actionable price drops occur—preventing alert fatigue. Solving real-world edge cases like character encoding issues, data persistence, and conditional event triggers was an awesome learning experience.

From raw event logs to a live cloud application! I built and deployed an interactive Marketing Funnel & Root Cause Performance Tracker using a cloud-first architecture via GitHub Codespaces. By processing 10,000 user event touchpoints, the application utilizes an embedded SQL database layer to isolate acquisition drop-off vectors and track week-over-week conversion volatility. The Stack: Python (Pandas, Matplotlib), SQLite3 (CTEs & Window Functions), and Streamlit Cloud. Check out the live interactive app below to filter channels and explore the underlying code!

🚨 Microsoft Azure Functions: typescript-eslint vs. Python — How to Choose the Right Tool When choosing between typescript-eslint and Python for Microsoft Azure Functions, don't just pick your favorite language. Look at what your code actually does. Both languages are fast to write, but they work very differently inside Azure. Here is a simple guide to help you choose the right one for your architecture: 🟢 Choose TypeScript if your function: Handles lots of web requests at the same time: TypeScript (Node.js) is built for speed when waiting on other systems. It is perfect for APIs, webhooks, and passing data between services without slowing down. Shares code with your frontend: If your app is written in React, Vue, or Angular, you can use TypeScript everywhere. This lets you share the same data types and rules between your frontend and backend. Needs fast startup times (Cold Starts): When Azure wakes up a sleeping function, TypeScript starts up very quickly. This keeps your application responsive for real users. 🟡 Choose Python if your function: Works with AI and Data Science: Python is the king of AI. If you are using OpenAI, LangChain, or working with tools like Pandas and NumPy to clean data, Python has the best libraries hands down. Processes heavy files and data pipelines: If your function gets triggered by a file upload and needs to clean, convert, or analyze large amounts of data, Python makes this effortless. Runs long, multi-step workflows: Python works great with Azure Durable Functions to handle complex, step-by-step tasks that need to track their progress over time. 🎯 Quick Summary If your function is a fast web API or connects your frontend to a database ➡️ Go with typescript-eslint. If your function handles AI, heavy data processing, or machine learning ➡️ Go with Python. 👇 To the developers: If you use Python on Microsoft Azure Functions, how do you handle slow startup times when using heavy libraries like Pandas or PyTorch?
