Web Apps That Work: Building Scalable, Maintainable Python Web Applications from Architecture to Deployment

By Miguel Farmer

Design, build, and ship reliable web applications that scale with confidence

Getting a web app running is easy.
Keeping it reliable, scalable, and maintainable is where most projects fail.

"Web Apps That Work" is a practical, end to end guide to building production ready web applications using Python.

This book focuses on architecture, clean design, and deployment strategies that help your applications grow without breaking.

Why most web apps fail over time

As applications evolve, common problems appear:

tightly coupled code that is hard to changeperformance bottlenecks under loadfragile deploymentslack of testing and observabilitypoor scalability decisions early on

This book teaches you how to avoid these issues from the start.
