Agree with @baconandcoconut who mentioned on the #EuroPython panel about OSS that we shouldn’t celebrate if ppl are able to maintain a library alone for 20 y, we should instead celebrate if they manage to get more ppl on board, divide responsibility, delegate, and over time pass the project on someone else, ideally a team. Over my volunteering career I learned that if the thing I built would die with me, I didn’t actually manage to build it yet. It’s not done until it lives without me involved.
If you're into #scraping and #Python, you should probably know that there's a new cool kid in town. Just a few days ago Apify has released a new OSS framework called #Crawlee.
It's asyncio, type hints, it can seamlessly switch between basic and browser (Playwright) requests. Auto retries, proxy rotation. I'm very much #Scrapy person, but these promises get me really intrigued! https://github.com/apify/crawlee-python
Tell them what you think - talk to Surav at their #EuroPython booth or file GitHub issues 🛠️
