## Hello!

I've joined the Dev.to community in the last few weeks and I'm having a blast! It's great to find a friendly community of keen developers who are open to chatting about what they do.

Now I'm looking forward to getting back into writing a few posts around the subjects I'm interesting in. One of the things I'd like to do is create a weekly post with what I've been up to, and what articles I found interesting or tips I've found useful. 

Hopefully this will be useful for anyone reading, and provide a place for me to refer back to when I forget what I have been doing!

## Learning

This week I continued my Python journey by completing another course on the [Python Path in Pluralsight](https://app.pluralsight.com/paths/skill/python). I found the[Python: Getting Started](https://app.pluralsight.com/library/courses/python-getting-started/description) course by [Bo Milanovich](http://bomilanovich.com/) to be a great start introduction to the language, syntax and some tools available as well as showcasing the different kinds of apps you can build.

## The News

Each week I'll post 10-20 links that I've found the most interesting from technology blogs, reddit and other parts of the Internet.

The highlight for me this week is the release of .NET Core 3 Preview 3. With a full release due towards the end of summer looking likely, I'll be looking forward to getting some Razor Component projects out in Azure!
