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!
As #Django turns 20 we’re starting to explore the tough existential questions at the #EuroPython social… does the Django pony have a name?
Any Djangonauts around for the #EuroPython sprints? I’d like to do some #Django contributing, ideally support others. If there are other pre-existing contributors around we can team up and support more people
Topics I’ve lined up so far just based on my own expertise: management commands; Django admin; Django website
Love this little promotion of the hallway track at #EuroPython - “talks are good but we are here not just to watch” ☺️
Another great tip from the #EuroPython beginners session - making a wishlist of things you want to talk about with other attendees ⭐️
Tomorrow at the #EuroPython sprints – come contribute to Django with us! 💚 We’d love to see people who are interested in volunteering, as well as coders. Lots of opportunities for impactful contributions well beyond Django core
