This is how I started my journey with web development.

I was a Data Scientist and I superficially used Flask to build an internal matching tool between internal products and competitors product (after an ML model). Then I started the Mega-Tutorial to build a small app to track our foosball matches and run a team tournament. Eventually, I wanted to accelerate my learning and joined a bootcamp (Le Wagon) where I learned Ruby on Rails from scratch. My Flask introduction with this tutorial was really helpful to understand things on almost all layers.

I always recommend this tutorial to people who come from Python and want a sneak peak to web development. I am very grateful for Miguel's work and for sharing it.
