In this section I'll show you some popular Python libraries and tools that you can use to make your project development easier, or to extend your projects.
pylint is a linter: a tool that checks your code for potential problems before you run it. Another popular linter is flake8.
yapf is a formatter: a tool that takes your Python code and re-writes it so it looks nicer and so that it always has a consistent style. Another popular formatter is black.
mailgun is a service used to send e-mails to users of your application. In some lectures of this section I cover how to interact with Mailgun to send e-mails when you need to.
