If you're looking to lead a project, let us know! We want to collaborate with you to help prepare people ahead of time. The first step is knowing which projects will be at #DjangoCon US.

If folks are going to #DjangoCon US sprints, please sign up early! Tickets are free and we'd like to try two new things:
1. Host virtual office hours ahead of the conference to help people get their machine's configured.
2. Announce and promote the projects that are being sprinted on!
If you're attending, let us know. The ticket process has new questions for whether you're new or leading a project. You can also email us at sprints@...
Let's go #Django!
Did this post from #DjangoCon Europe organizers make its way to Mastodon? It was new to me.

I missed last week, but no worries. This week's #LunchTalk makes up for it. It's from @josh from #DjangoCon US 2024. It's his talk "An Opinionated Guide to Modern Django Forms".
Give it a watch to learn about Django's form improvements!

Last year at #DjangoCon US, Lisa Dusseault showed off the data pipeline framework, Phaser. I enjoyed this talk because it made me realize I should revisit how data processing in my project should work.

This talk is worth watching if you're interested in:
- Contributing to Phaser
- Data pipeline frameworks
- Learning how to approach building your own framework
