I love Python. In fact, for a few years it has been my favourite language (Maybe I change my mind after trying Go...).
But one of my favourite fea...

I'm not a professional programmer, especially in Python.
In the past I've tried to make various automation script, for fun.
Three of the best:
a wireless (based on sockets) transfer script, from and to pc (Mac) and mobile (iOS)
a web crawler in httplib, urllib and regex (for find pdf's research in Google)
a remote system controller via email

That's cool. I was playing this week with reading-deleting-modifying-etc files but next week I'm going to start with email automation.
The wireless socket transfer sounds great, I like the idea.
Nice! Have a nice pydev ;)
I have to use registry scripts to set up auto-logins for digital signage computers. Rather than keeping a bunch of dangerous registry-editing scripts on my filesystem, I wrote a Python script that takes a template, combines it with login info from a JSON file, and creates the necessary registry script. That way I can create them as needed and delete them when I'm done without worrying about losing the information or accidentally running them.
I also have to inspect exit signs throughout my workplace. In order to keep track of these inspections, I made a web page that queries a SQLite database via AJAX requests to Python cgi scripts. When I need to log a new inspection, I just run py -m http.server --cgi and go to localhost:8000/ in my browser. It's kind of kludgy in its current state, but I'm thinking about re-implementing it with Django.
Yeah, using Django is the best option and a piece of cake to implement.

Quick scripts that scrape data from csv or text files. Probably what bash could do faster 😅
I'm doing something like that right now. What do you use to search inside the text files?
The biggest case is when I need a quick script and want to avoid writing it in bash :)
And having Python, you always want to avoid using Bash.
Or at least, I want to 😀
Perhaps quick scripting and automation, e.g. adding podcasts that I want to listen to my to-do app
