This morning I joined the second day of sprints at DjangoCon US 2025 in Chicago for a short while. ☕
I had the chance to exchange some final thoughts with the Django Fellows, Natalia and Jacob. 💬
I also supported Tobias in upgrading the PostgreSQL instance for djangoproject.com to version 17. 🐘
As the conference ends, I say goodbye to the American Django community. 👋
Thank you for the warm welcome. 🤗
Chicago is a beautiful city, and I hope to return! 🌆

Today was a fantastic Sprint day at DjangoCon US 2025! 🇺🇸
Started with coffee by the Chicago riverside, then joined many Django contributors working together around the table. 👩💻
I focused on improving the Django website search and followed progress on django-simple-deploy. 🐛
At lunch we took a short walk to enjoy classic Chicago deep-dish pizza. 🍕
I wrapped up by finalizing my PR and getting valuable feedback — a truly rewarding day of coding and community. 🎊
After a full day of sprints at DjangoCon US 2025, we enjoyed a wonderful evening in downtown Chicago: dinner, great beer, and of course some ice cream 🍦. We closed the night with friendly chats in the hotel lobby before saying goodbye. Meeting people in person is the real added value of community conferences.
