Last sprint morning for me at DjangoCon Europe 2026 in Athens 🇬🇷
Tried to wrap up a few things I had started, helped where I could, and spent time talking and saying goodbye to many people.
Also gave a hand bringing lunch for everyone, small things but part of the whole experience 🙂
Big thanks to the organizers 🙏
After the sprint day at DjangoCon Europe 2026 🇬🇷
We went for a long walk through Athens with the Parthenon in the background, then a great dinner with Greek food and one last drink before calling it a night 🍷
Always special to spend this kind of time together, especially meeting new people along the way 🙂
Afternoon of the first sprint day at DjangoCon Europe 2026 🇬🇷
We had a hands-on session to continue the Django + AI workshop from the conference, with a few members of the official AI working group and other sprinters.
Really good discussion, helped clarify quite a few points.
A report will follow 🙂
Sprint day at DjangoCon Europe 2026 🇬🇷
This morning we kicked off the first sprint session, hosted by Bespote, in a room full of developers working on all sorts of Django topics.
We started by sharing goals, then everyone spread out into different groups and got to work.
Lots of energy in the room, and a great chance to collaborate and move Django forward 🙂
Last evening of DjangoCon Europe 2026 🇬🇷
A walk through the center of Athens and dinner with the speakers… really nice way to close these days.
Good company, a bit of wandering around the city, and some well-earned food after an intense conference 🙂
Closing session just wrapped up at DjangoCon Europe 2026 in Athens 🇬🇷
Final thanks, hugs, goodbyes… and that feeling that it went by too fast.
See you somewhere down the road 🙂
Lightning talks just wrapped up at DjangoCon Europe 2026 ⚡️
Always a fun mix of ideas, demos, and unexpected moments right before the closing… a perfect way to end the conference 🙂
Last talk of DjangoCon Europe 2026 🇬🇷
Now listening to Mateusz Bełczowski 🎤
Looking at supply chain attacks in Python projects, how dependencies can get compromised and what we can actually do about it… a strong topic to close the conference 👀
Next talk at DjangoCon Europe 2026 🇬🇷
Now listening to Christophe Henry 🎤
Exploring the idea of using Django templates on the frontend, transpiling them to JS to keep a single source of truth while avoiding too many HTTP requests… interesting direction 👀
First talk after lunch on the last day of DjangoCon Europe 2026 🇬🇷
Now listening to Loes Crama from Cosine 🚀
Django being used to manage data for a space mission, tracking thousands of components across Europe… always fun to see where Django ends up 🙂
