1
00:00:01,690 --> 00:00:05,560
All right, welcome to the course, my name is John Elder and I'll be your instructor today in this

2
00:00:05,560 --> 00:00:05,770
video.

3
00:00:05,770 --> 00:00:09,400
I want to spend just a couple of minutes sort of talking about what you can expect from this course.

4
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:14,290
I walk you through some basic things we need to talk about before we get started and sort of introduce

5
00:00:14,290 --> 00:00:14,710
myself.

6
00:00:14,710 --> 00:00:19,390
So in this course, we're going to build this cool little MP three player with Kenta and Python.

7
00:00:19,690 --> 00:00:24,280
So Kintore is a tool that you can use to build a graphical user interface, you know, window, you

8
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:27,780
know, window e looking apps with Python.

9
00:00:27,790 --> 00:00:30,420
It's super easy to use and it's a lot of fun.

10
00:00:30,430 --> 00:00:33,310
So if you don't have any experience with Kintu, you're going to be OK.

11
00:00:33,310 --> 00:00:35,470
It's going to be helpful if you know a little bit already.

12
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:36,790
Same thing with Python.

13
00:00:36,790 --> 00:00:38,770
If you know a little python, that's great.

14
00:00:38,770 --> 00:00:40,210
If you don't, you're going to be OK.

15
00:00:40,260 --> 00:00:44,660
I'm going to be walking you through everything step by step in this course, so you should be fine.

16
00:00:45,010 --> 00:00:49,270
So in the next video, we're going to go ahead and start to install some of the things we need.

17
00:00:49,270 --> 00:00:52,720
Everything you need in this course is free to download all over the Internet.

18
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:54,820
So you have to buy anything else in order to continue.

19
00:00:55,060 --> 00:00:58,320
And also, I want to mention, if you have any questions along the way.

20
00:00:58,330 --> 00:00:58,990
Absolutely.

21
00:00:58,990 --> 00:01:00,340
Drop me a line and ask them.

22
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:01,330
That's what I'm here for.

23
00:01:01,330 --> 00:01:02,350
I do this full time.

24
00:01:02,500 --> 00:01:06,970
I'm I'm either recording new videos for new courses or answering students in my day.

25
00:01:06,970 --> 00:01:08,050
That's all I ever do.

26
00:01:08,260 --> 00:01:11,430
I'm in Las Vegas, so that's Pacific Time in the US.

27
00:01:11,650 --> 00:01:14,260
So sort of keep that in mind when you ask your question.

28
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,400
As far as response time goes, if you're on the other side of the world is during the day, I'm obviously

29
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:19,300
back home sleeping.

30
00:01:19,300 --> 00:01:20,860
So I just sort of keep that in mind.

31
00:01:20,860 --> 00:01:24,250
I try to answer every question just as soon as I can, at least within the day.

32
00:01:24,460 --> 00:01:25,840
And hopefully that works.

33
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:31,810
Another thing I'll mention the type of question if you have a specific question about a specific video,

34
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:33,220
that's what I can help you with.

35
00:01:33,220 --> 00:01:34,630
I have over one hundred thousand students.

36
00:01:34,630 --> 00:01:39,850
So if you go off and start doing something else with the app that doesn't have anything to do with the

37
00:01:39,850 --> 00:01:44,530
course, if you go off and try something else and you get stuck, I can't really help you with those

38
00:01:44,530 --> 00:01:45,010
questions.

39
00:01:45,010 --> 00:01:49,420
I can help you with just questions you have about specific videos.

40
00:01:49,420 --> 00:01:54,460
So if you really want a quick answer, be like, hey, I'm on video 14, I'm trying to do this.

41
00:01:54,460 --> 00:01:55,510
I'm getting this error.

42
00:01:55,660 --> 00:01:56,860
What you know, what do I do?

43
00:01:57,070 --> 00:02:01,300
Or if, you know, you're watching a video and you just don't quite understand something I'm saying,

44
00:02:01,300 --> 00:02:01,950
drop me lying.

45
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:02,890
Ask me about that.

46
00:02:03,130 --> 00:02:04,870
Happy to help with all those questions.

47
00:02:04,870 --> 00:02:05,950
Like I said, that's what I'm here for.

48
00:02:05,950 --> 00:02:08,410
That's built into the price of the course that you paid for.

49
00:02:08,620 --> 00:02:09,270
So that's great.

50
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,420
So also, I'm going to recommend that you use the exact tools that I use.

51
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,420
If you use different tools, you will have different results.

52
00:02:16,660 --> 00:02:20,230
People think, well, I'm going to use this other editor and it's the same, right?

53
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:21,130
No, it's not.

54
00:02:21,850 --> 00:02:24,880
You know, so you have to use the same tools or you're going to get different errors.

55
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,490
Now, if you like some other tool, you're familiar with it.

56
00:02:27,490 --> 00:02:29,440
You use it all the time and you know how to use it.

57
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:30,460
Feel free to do that.

58
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,600
But you're likely going to get errors if you don't know exactly what you're doing.

59
00:02:35,110 --> 00:02:37,180
And I can't help you because I'm not using that tool.

60
00:02:37,180 --> 00:02:38,710
I'm using the tools in this course.

61
00:02:38,710 --> 00:02:42,940
So if you're especially if you're a beginner and if you're not sure about different types of tools,

62
00:02:42,940 --> 00:02:46,780
different text editors, different terminals, things like that, just stick to the ones that I use

63
00:02:46,780 --> 00:02:47,410
in the course.

64
00:02:47,590 --> 00:02:49,180
It's going to be the easiest way to learn.

65
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,860
And, you know, after you take the course, if you want to go off and try other tools and recreate

66
00:02:53,860 --> 00:02:55,390
the course, absolutely do that.

67
00:02:55,390 --> 00:03:00,160
But definitely the first time around, the first time watching, I recommend, especially for new users

68
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,310
and newbie coders, just use the same tools that I'm using.

69
00:03:03,310 --> 00:03:04,000
They're all free.

70
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,160
And I get this every day.

71
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,470
I heard this other tools better, so I started using it.

72
00:03:08,470 --> 00:03:10,090
Now I'm getting this er what do I do.

73
00:03:10,540 --> 00:03:11,140
I don't know.

74
00:03:11,140 --> 00:03:11,690
I can't help you.

75
00:03:11,690 --> 00:03:16,360
I'm using that tool so I get that question a lot, those types of questions a lot.

76
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,420
So that's why I mentioned that not to be a jerk or anything.

77
00:03:19,420 --> 00:03:23,710
Not that my tools are better, it's just they're the ones that I'm using in this course and I recommend

78
00:03:23,710 --> 00:03:24,550
that you use them as well.

79
00:03:24,550 --> 00:03:26,120
So I think that's all for this video.

80
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:30,070
In the next video, we're going to jump right in and start downloading the different tools we need and

81
00:03:30,070 --> 00:03:30,640
go from there.
