Built a side project in an evening to promote my side project
I spun up this project, Use Pandas last night with the ultimate goal of promoting my other side project Deliberate Python.
It's a collection of Python pandas recipes :) Perfect for data analysts, engineers, etc.
Check it out here --> usepandas.com
If you leverage existing tools, you can build and deploy useful stuff to people pretty quickly!
How I did it:
- Used namecheap's logo maker to make a quick logo for the project
- Bought domain from namecheap.
- Picked a starter Gatsby theme
- Deployed site with Netlify
- Wrote the content for the site.
Pretty low friction way of getting something out there in the world.
The goal of this project is to be a free and easy to use resource for Python devs. I'd like to leverage it to grow my Twitter audience.

Shout-out to @Gabe for the inspiration and advice. Already got a couple of people sign up for the newsletter from this!
I've got a lot more effort to put into this project for it to be really useful but now that the skelton is set-up, I can add a few recipes a week without too much effort.
Nice! Happy to hear you were inspired by usehooks. Love the name :)
fyi: first couple links in your IH post are broken
Thanks for the heads up! I fixed the links.
I gave you a nod as well on the bottom of main page of usepandas, I just thought your idea was such a great one! Cheers 🙏
Awesome, thanks for the shout out :)
Nice. If you want I can send you some pandas recipes:
Yeah I’d love that!
You can just submit the code on the issues page of the repo, or email me :)

Yeah it’s pretty nice for quick and easy logos! Also it’s free which is cool!
It’s perfect for small projects for sure!
