Hello.

I recently updated my "Practice Python Projects" ebook, which presents five beginner-to-intermediate level projects inspired by real world use cases.

You can read it online here: https://learnbyexample.github.io/practice_python_projects/preface.html

Or, you can get pdf/epub versions via https://learnbyexample.gumroad.com/l/py_projects/free (free till this weekend).

More resources related to projects: https://learnbyexample.github.io/py_resources/beginners.html#projects

Happy learning :)

Why the commercial license for pngquant? Maybe rewriting pngcrush IP and slapping a commercial license on it is copyright infringement. This is my impression of Rust. Take others IP, rewrite it in Rust, poof copyright magically transferred. The C99 version how much of that is from prior art?

Lets just ignore prior art and associated license terms
