BIP39 basics: generating mnemonic and seed from entropy (bitcoin python)

In this video, we will start a new series – coding bitcoin wallet in python. Using python3 I am going through the implementation of BIP39 – deriving a mnemonic 24-word sentence from given entropy and converting it to SEED using the specified password.
