I agree about having an error to investigate or a question to answer. Some of the python libraries with great code I'd recommend reading are Flask and Werkzueg.

I agree about having an error to investigate or a question to answer. Some of the python libraries with great code I'd recommend reading are Flask and Werkzueg. Both have very clean interfaces and excellent documentation. Sqlalchemy is somewhere in the middle. As an ORM it has a high minimum level of complexity. But the codebase is still reasonably well organized. Looking for an answer to something like "how does it emit a JOIN" may be a lot harder to answer than you expect though. For packages to avoid, stay away from Celery. It's just... icky.

Yup, sqla is super meta and, thus, complicated (just due to the problem space). Better is alembic / alembicutils where you can dig into the autogenerate system they’re layering over sqla. Weirdly enough, I enjoy digging through C and Java libs more, mostly because they’re more unfamiliar to me. I’d spend more time in Postgres / fontforge / mupdf / pdfbox / nginx / uwsgi on the whole.
