Finally, I have compiled a Python learning roadmap and resource code, hoping to help friends who are learning Python break through information barriers and progress together:

A compilation of technical points in all directions of Python, forming a summary of knowledge points in various fields. Its usefulness lies in the fact that you can find corresponding learning resources based on the knowledge points above, ensuring a more comprehensive learning experience.
