Course Headline:

Dive into the world of database applications with our comprehensive online course, where you'll learn to create robust CRUD applications using Python as your programming powerhouse and MySQL Database Server as your reliable storage system.

Course Description:

Overview:

In this hands-on course, you will embark on a journey to master the art of interfacing a Python application with a MySQL Server Database. We'll explore the depths of Python's versatile modules designed specifically for database interactions, and put our skills to the test by building a fully functional CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) application.

What You Will Learn:

• Database Interface Setup: Install and configure the CX_ORACLE connector module to seamlessly interact with MySQL Server from your Python code.
• MySQL Server & Python Environment Setup: Get Python and MySQL database server ready on your system, and create the necessary databases and tables for real-world interaction.
• Python Application Frontend Development: Utilize Tkinter, Python's default library, along with its submodule ttk for themed widgets, to design an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI).
• Database Configuration Management: Learn how to create and manage a configuration file that will serve as a bridge between your application and the MySQL database.
• Application Structure & Coding: Understand object-oriented principles by creating classes with specialized methods for handling database operations, and write standalone functions to support complex tasks.
