DeadLock - Parsing JSON #2

What's up guys!
Here I am with an update to my project - "DeadLock", a project manager for data scientists.

Today I worked on the JSON parsing and thanks to both the library and API client, I was able to check which property I had to extract from the JSON response in order to get the download URL. I have already made the functions that are responsible for getting the latest version of the different packages. Today I created the JSON engine and extracted the version and initialised the download functions.

My plan is to download the tar.gz or the wheel file and then build those files according to Pypi. I also have to first check the user's OS to prevent additional download files.

Then I'll have to figure out a way to create a virtual environment that too without using traditional venv module. Then install the downloaded packages in the said environment and create a file that maintains the version of the said dependency.

So much stuff to do and I got excited when I wrote the 50% completion post 😅

Anyways, Thank you and Bye, Bye 🫡
