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!

What an incredible three days it's been—full of everything we hoped for and more. Thank you to each and every one of you for being part of DjangoCon Europe 2026. None of this would have been possible without you. We hope you had as much fun as we did. 🫶 🇬🇷 🌺
I just published a recap of my DjangoCon Europe 2026 🇬🇷
It’s a timeline of all the posts I shared live during the conference, with photos and small moments along the way.
A simple way to relive the experience from start to sprints 🙂
Dear fellow @djangoconeurope folks, paying the post-conf body tax this week? 🧘🏻♀️
If your neck & shoulders have been complaining (like mine 😇🤓) about 3 days in the auditorium plus backpack & laptop-schlepping duty plus plane + train rides, here are two yoga videos that really helped me loosen up this week:

Felt a release in tension even after the first session. Big recommend 😁
Feeling grateful to attend #djangocon and meet and socialize with friends from all around the world - being in a position to travel is a privilege one should not take for granted 👑 🦄
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 🙏
I'm back from attending Djangocon Athens.
Thank you to organising team and volunteers of DjangoCon Europe 2026 for great time in Athens. Putting together something like this and pulling it off so well is not easy!
It was great to see some old friends and make some new ones too, I'll be coming to the next one for sure. There was some really great talks and workshops, they make me want to get more involved in the Django space in general.
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 🙂
