Selected columns unique values convert to dataframe columns

I have a main_df dataframe as below.

   user_id  main_code   sub_1   sub_2
0   03920   AA  YA  ZA
1   34233   BB  YB  ZA
2   02342   AA  YD  ZB
3   32324   CC  YA  ZA
4   52323   AA  YA  ZD
5   20932   DD  YD  ZD
6   02034   BB  YA  ZA

I am trying to achieve below output dataframe. Selected columns(sub_1 & sub_2) of main_df dataframe unique values count and covert to dataframe columns.

  main_code YA  YB  YD  ZA  ZB  ZD
0   AA  2.0 NaN 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0
1   BB  1.0 1.0 NaN 2.0 NaN NaN
2   CC  1.0 NaN NaN 1.0 NaN NaN
3   DD  NaN NaN 1.0 NaN NaN 1.0

So far I tried as below. I get a different output.

result_df = pd.DataFrame()
for col in ['sub_1','sub_2']:
    result_df = pd.concat([result_df, pd.DataFrame(main_df[pd.notnull(main_df[col])]['main_code'].value_counts())], axis=1)
result_df.columns = ['sub_1','sub_2']

It would be helpful someone can guide me. Thank you.

Although right answer is already given. You can use this if you want to follow a customized approach.

a = (pd.pivot_table(df, index='main_code',columns= 
     ['sub_1'],aggfunc=np.count_nonzero).reset_index())

cols = a.columns.droplevel(0).to_list()

cols[0]='main_code'

a.columns=cols

print(a)

Here you go:

pd.merge(
    df.pivot_table(index="main_code", columns="sub_1", aggfunc="count")["sub_2"],
    df.pivot_table(index="main_code", columns="sub_2", aggfunc="count")["sub_1"],
    left_index=True,
    right_index=True
)

Use .melt with .pivot_table

df = df.melt(id_vars='main_code', value_vars=['sub_1', 'sub_2']).pivot_table(index='main_code', columns='value', aggfunc='count').reset_index()
