Chapter 1: Introduction and Installing Tuxedo

In this chapter, we will introduce Tuxedo and learn why it is still relevant and in use even today. I will try to convince you that the Python programming language is a good choice when it comes to writing, extending, and improving Tuxedo applications. And finally, we will create a development environment for learning Tuxedo development using Python.

We will cover the following topics in this chapter:

  • Introducing Tuxedo
  • Understanding Tuxedo through modern lens
  • Reviewing the need for Python

By the end of this chapter, you will have a good understanding of Tuxedo and have your environment set up for building your own applications.
