Introduction In this tutorial, we will explore how to use FTP with Python to send and receive files from a server over TCP/IP connections. To make things easier and more abstract, we will be using Python’s ftplib library which provides a range of functionalities that make it easier to work with FTP. We’ll see the implementation for uploading and downloading files from the server, as well as some other cool things that “ftplib” allows us to do. What is FTP? […]
