Pretty sure #EuroPython 2025 was my top 1 fav conference ever. Just the perfect mixture of catching up with people I know, meeting people I don’t know, learning new things. Time well spent chatting w/ Python veterans and also first-timers
Volunteering there was ACE, and for #Django people, I’m thankful we got to have a booth, and birthday cake for our project
THANK YOU 🫶 to everyone who was part of this - attendees, organizers, sponsors, everyone
I don’t think PyCon France 🇫🇷 was mentioned at #EuroPython? It’s in 3 months, it’s ✨ free ✨, it’s in Lyon (great food), very reachable by train or bike, or plane. Did I mention it’s free? https://www.pycon.fr/2025/en/ Run by @AFPy
OH AND… the CFP closes this evening! It’s bilingual English - French
At #EuroPython lots of people are asking how many projects are built with @django. The answer is about 500,000 to 1M. And yet we only raise $250k per year to support the project, yep, sustainability in open source is hard ☺️
Train travel to #EuroPython 2025 is very doable! About 75% lower emissions than flying, both for day trains and for long-distance night trains 🌟 https://thib.me/train-to-europython-2025
I’ll be at the Packaging Summit tomorrow at #EuroPython – any thoughts on what are important Python packaging topics for the Django community? Sustainability / fundraising? Package discovery? PEP 772 I imagine?
Now on the way to #EuroPython ☺️ about 24h door-to-door with the night train, wish me luck!
New form set up during the #EuroPython sprints – share any quotes or testimonials we could reuse in Django marketing 💚 https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfkkvFZnLi_Mg_DnMwMC8g3V5ke2RnA4y4yXiTyaBU-zPFJ8w/viewform?usp=dialog
We got so many people coming by our booth just to say thank you / share how much they appreciate #Django and the community, wanted to try and capture some of this so we can make use of it in our work
As #Django turns 20 we’re starting to explore the tough existential questions at the #EuroPython social… does the Django pony have a name?
