theoretically, python could be used to write a wallet that communicates with bitshares blockchain, even though graphene is written in react.js, right?

I believe graphene is written in c++

appreciate the correction.

question still stands though, if I wanted to make an alt wallet (a BTS equivalent to BTC/LTC's electrum, if you would), and actually saw this thing through long enough to get to that point, could that be done in python?

Yes, you can do that.

I am down for the react.js or angular.js path.

bumping this thread because I'm halfway through the python course and having a blast of it.

I see it's back online now, so I'll check it out later tonight.

Glad they got it back online.

Not much sense in promoting a school that can't keep it's site operational. Please check and see if you can access any of the courses, particularly the python course.

10% done with Python, finished HTML & CSS and 47% done with JavaScript, so far no issues. Personally I really like the site.

I just logged in and am able to access the Python course. I am currently in the "practice makes perfect" part of the Loops section. Everything loads fine for me, Win7 / Firefox.

Codeacademy is amazing.  Being free, some courses may be works in progress.  I still want to get something put together with respect to this, but it had to be put on the backburner since noone was interested in sitting in at various times throughout the week to help
Newbies who are stuck. 

Im still in love with the idea and have a room specifically for it in the beyond bitcoin slack.  If anyone is interested in forming up, message me with your email address and ill add you to it.  :)

Sometimes i have ideas waiting for others to pick up simply due to time constraints.  But this one would be very powerful if the community were interested.  Heck, id even pay people who hold big blue button server hangouts to teach this stuff to our community in brownies.

Please invite me to the slack.

I wish I was advanced enough to teach.  I will provide any help to newbies that I can, but I am would not be willing to charge for that, as I am pretty much a newbie myself.

FYI - I have tried throughout the day to access the python and angularjs courses with timeouts in every case. The codecademy site is up but not the courses it seems. Also tried the "Sign up" button in the top right with the same timeout.

There are plenty of similar resources on the net, just thought I'd give that one a go to be on the same page as everyone else & see how good it was. Oh well, so much for that idea!
