Prompt — copy and paste:
I'm a beginner and want to learn Python by building a real web application. Please suggest a simple but practical project (like a personal task manager) and break down the learning path into these phases: 1) Basic Python syntax needed, 2) Introduction to a web framework (like Flask), 3) Building core features, 4) Adding a database. List the specific concepts to learn in each phase.
