Hitchhiker’s Guide to Python

Howdoi is a code search tool that has been used by countless developers, hacker schools, and students to help with common coding tasks. It was a pleasure to write and has dozens of contributors to the codebase on Github.

Recently howdoi was featured in Kenneth Reitz’s Hitchhiker’s Guide to Python published by O’Reilly. There is a section on writing great code that recommends reading others’ work to learn how to craft better code. I’m honored howdoi was chosen as an exemplary project.

You can read the section about howdoi, but please also consider purchasing the book as all proceeds are being donated by Kenneth to the Python Software Foundation.

As always, you can read the full source on Github.
