The companion code repository for the Manning book 'Tiny Python Projects' by Ken Youens-Clark, containing exercises for learning Python through test-driven development of small games and puzzles. Each chapter directory includes pytest test suites that learners must satisfy to complete the exercises.

Use cases

  • learn python through exercises
  • learn test-driven development in python
  • practice python with small projects
  • find python exercises with pytest tests
  • beginner python games and puzzles
  • learn to write command-line python programs

When to choose

  • you are a beginner learning Python and want structured, test-driven exercises
  • you want to practice TDD with pre-written pytest suites
  • you are following the Tiny Python Projects book or its video series

When to avoid

  • you need production-ready libraries or tools rather than learning exercises
  • you are an advanced Python developer seeking advanced topics
  • you want a course without buying the accompanying book
