Cookpad's coding style guides

When I first learned Python nearly 27 years ago, I was immediately struck by how I could productively apply it to all sorts of messy work projects. Fast-forward a decade and I found myself teaching others the same fun. The result of that teaching is this course--A no-nonsense treatment of Python…

Django is a full-stack web framework designed for rapid backend development. It provides an integrated environment for building data-driven applications by combining an object-relational mapping layer for database management with a modular request-response pipeline for handling HTTP traffic. The framework emphasizes security and maintainability, offering a suite of tools to protect against common web vulnerabilities while decoupling site structure from implementation through a centralized URL routing system. A defining characteristic of the framework is its ability to generate production-read

This project is a comprehensive guide and technical book focused on C++ concurrency. It serves as an educational resource for developers to learn multi-threading and the implementation of thread-safe code. The material covers the C++ memory model, atomic operations, and synchronization patterns. It combines theoretical explanations with practical code examples to illustrate how to prevent data races in multi-threaded applications. The instructional approach utilizes scenario-based learning and analysis of the C++ standard library to demonstrate concurrent execution patterns and memory orderi

Go is a statically typed, compiled programming language designed for building scalable, concurrent software. It provides a memory-safe execution environment that combines a high-performance runtime with a self-hosting compiler toolchain, enabling the creation of statically linked machine code binaries without external dependencies. The language is built around a structural type system that uses interfaces for polymorphism and a concurrency model based on lightweight, stack-based coroutines that communicate through channels. The language distinguishes itself through a runtime that features a c

The CppCoreGuidelines is a comprehensive software engineering standard that provides a curated framework of coding conventions and design principles for C++. It serves as an authoritative guide for writing safe, efficient, and maintainable code by establishing high-level architectural patterns and organizational principles for large-scale projects. The guidelines emphasize the use of a strong, static type system to ensure memory safety and enforce consistent resource management patterns. The project distinguishes itself by promoting the zero-overhead abstraction principle, ensuring that high-

This project is a collection of curricular resources and hands-on tutorials designed to teach Python programming and scientific computing. It consists of a series of interactive lessons and executable notebooks that provide a guided approach to learning Python through a combination of code and prose. The curriculum is specifically designed for experienced programmers to quickly master Python syntax, data structures, and core language semantics. It includes an introductory guide to the libraries and programming environments used for scientific computing and complex dataset analysis. The educa

This project is a Python financial analytics framework and quantitative trading library. It provides a suite of mathematical tools for asset pricing, statistical market analysis, and the development of algorithmic trading strategies. The library is distinguished by its focus on currency and commodity correlation modeling, using regression and normalization to identify exchange rate drivers. It features a specialized portfolio optimization engine that applies graph theory, such as clique centrality and degeneracy ordering, alongside quadratic programming to balance risk-adjusted returns. The

This is an interactive Python tutorial delivered as a collection of Jupyter notebooks. It is designed as a structured learning path for beginners, teaching fundamental language concepts through a sequence of lessons that combine explanatory text with runnable code cells and embedded practice exercises. Each notebook is a self-contained unit that introduces a topic, demonstrates it with a minimal code example, and then asks the learner to write code themselves, receiving immediate feedback from the browser-based execution environment. The curriculum is built on a progressive concept-stacking mo
