ABOUT THIS COURSE

The Spotify API is a simple REST API that allows us to programmatically access data on Spotify using HTTP requests. If you’ve ever wanted to know more about how your favorite artists are performing statistically, what playlists are trending right now and so on, then this course is for you! Not only is this course a quick hands-on guide, it’s also a thorough run-down on how to use the API’s methods for various ends. You’ll learn about the Spotify API’s multiple endpoints and how to call them to get the data you want. After that, you’ll look at a Django application with some of the discussed API endpoints integrated into it. By the time you’re done, you’ll know how to use the Spotify API and how it can be integrated with other applications. Lastly, there will be some recommendations and resources for you to explore the Spotify API further.

These are high-quality courses. Trust me the price is worth it for the content quality. Educative came at the right time in my career. I'm understanding topics better than with any book or online video tutorial I've done. Truly made for developers. Thanks

Just finished my first full #ML course: Machine learning for Software Engineers from Educative, Inc. ... Highly recommend!

You guys are the gold standard of crash-courses... Narrow enough that it doesn't need years of study or a full blown book to get the gist, but broad enough that an afternoon of Googling doesn't cut it.

Your courses are simply awesome, the depth they go into and the breadth of coverage is so good that I don't have to refer to 10 different websites looking for interview topics and content.
