The best way to learn Python and improve your Python skills is to apply them. However, it can get boring and and tedious if you solve "traditional" programming problems usually taught in bootcamps or university. Instead, the most fun way to learn is to build projects!

With the power of Python, you can automate repetitive tasks and save valuable time. Join me in this new series on Python Automation Projects as we dive deep into the world of Python, exploring various techniques, libraries, and best practices.

In this video, I show you guys how to build a File management script in Python. The script monitors the downloads folder and moves files to folders of your choice depending on the content type of the file. It can save you time as you don't have to manually move files and clean up the Downloads folder.

The project is especially suited to beginners and shows how to use external libraries and the technique of starting out with quickstart code and then building on that to achieve the desired outcome.
